I put wheel spacers on my 07 gt to give a more aggressive stance. 1" on front and
1.25" in rear. The front wheel studs did need to be shortened the rears I had no issues

bad idea. Do it right w/ new tires/wheels. You'll be happier in the long run.

To be fair, lower offset wheels put the same strain on the axle and bearings. Regardless, I want my wheels to sit on the hub and bolt to the rotor, not a piece of milled aluminum.

Ditto, a good quality hub centric spacer is just fine and in some cases the only way to get the most tire under the car possible without rubbing.

with a 10mm spacer I will have to change the factory studs to the FRPP ones so they are longer, right? throwing that 10mm spacer on the factory wheel hub and studs won't give me enough lug thread?

Yes. Get ARPs and cut them down once you figure out how much of them you need.
