Quick qustion on install

I am about to install 20mm Kics spacers on the front. How do I tighten the nuts without my front hubs from spinning around?

You tighten them down as much as you can... Then lower down the car but not completely just enough to torque them down to spec... Then lower completely...

Sorry I was not more clear. When tightening the spacers, the wheel is not on the car yet. The new studs are attached to the spacer and you tighten the spacer to the old studs.
