130mm hub on 135 dropout
I've googled the topic and found conflicting advices.
Has anyone tried to install a 130mm wheel on a 135mm frame?
I have a spare Shimano WH-R500 and would like to install on my Aluminum GMC Denali.
Would it be ok to just add 2.5mm spacers to each end?
Or do i need to replace with 135mm axle and re-dish?
Thanks in advance.

The Denali is 135mm? How forward thinking! You could upgrade that bad boy through 12-speed!
