agreed… get wheels that suck less

also, width matters.

if they’re 11" wide then this is slightly less of an issue… if they’re 8" wide then even a 40mm spacer wont help you

dont buy non-hubcentric spacers,  
save up and get yourself some REAL wheels man.  
You will be MUCH happier in the long run.

Please post an image of the rims you want to purchase.

i didnt see a clause in the first post saying that track cars can have 2 inches of wheel gap and still be considered to have “wheel fitment”

maybe if he was tucking tire it would be cool, but hes not.
