Nylon spacers would work fine.  Or you could go old school like my Bugeye and use wood.

In the never ending search for weight savings (a big push might get this years 1Kg saving up to 2Kg - about 5 lbs) I realised I could replace them with aluminium alloy spacers or a hard plastic.  The seat doesn't move on the spacers it simply raises the height.  So, any reason not to use hard plastic rather than aluminium?
