I was trying to fit my 10" widened stock wheels on the car and of course they need a "spacer" of some sort. My question is there any reason NOT to consider "adapters" so I would not have to add longer lug studs?

IMO the disadvantage of longer studs is that if you change/swap-out other rims you would need to pull-out the axles to swap-in/out the studs. *Unless you don't mind open lug nuts rather than the acorn.
Either, spacers or adapters, need to be hub centric.
.
Hub centric is the only way to go as Joe stated.
You went 1/2" too wide, hard to find an option for a shallow application in a hub centric adapter.
You may only have spacers as an option. Unless your willing to cut the existing studs down....
