I have put spacers on my car, but the lug nuts do not go on all the way. Is it safe to drive this way or should I just take off the spacers so that the lug nuts go on completely?

You were already advised not to use the spacers at all.

The reasons why you do not run spacers that do not allow the lug nuts to fit properly.
