Help me out here guys
Hey guys, I've run into a slight issue in the details of my little S15 project. The rims that I bought for the car won't clear the 4 piston S15 calipers that were transplanted onto my car. Does anyone know of a good spacer that won't result in me losing a wheel while taking a sharp corner? I'm lookin at about 5mm of clearance that I need to gain. Any manufacturer or price or link or anything would be very welcome. Thanks in advance.

What rims are you having trouble fitting these behind?

They're ADR M-Sports 18x7.5 in front, 18x8.5 in the back. The car (along with those wheels) has been in the shop for so long that I forgot what the heck the offsets were on the wheels. In any case, I'll just let the guys at the shop handle it. I ordered some generic cheap spacers just to see if they work. If it feels at all unstable, I'll go with the hub centric ones, but those things are bank.

I have 15x7, 15x7.5 and 16x7.5 for the front and 15x7, 14x8, 15x7.5 and 16x7.5 for the rears.
I guess I will just have to try them all out when the brakes are installed. I thought I would be able to clear the calipers with the offsets.
