Hub Spacing conversion

So I have an aluminum track frame that requires 130mm spacing. I have a 120mm hub. i know i cannot squeeze this type of frame to make it fit. is it possible to add spacers/nuts to make this work? would i have to replace the axel?

You probably will need to replace the axle (assuming the hub hasn't already received a longer axle) and get some spacers, but that's a pretty cheap (and easy) conversion.

thats what i was thinking. i think both hubs are formula, too. thanks!
