Because of the design of the taper it provides a constant radial force around the bore of the hole. The sharp edges of the hacksaw score even tho only a mm deep have broken that and introduced a weak point. It will lead to premature catastrophic failure. Not tryin to knock ya or nothin just worried for your saftey. It is sometimes possible to ream the hole slightly larger and go past that score but then the spacer you have might push to far through.
I wouldnt not run this on my or any clients cars for any length of time.
