Default Front Rim is Rubbing

so while pulling the car out of the garage to clean it for the AM show I heard a noise at full turn. Get out of the car and look under to see this...



Pulled the car back in the garage. Was going to go in the ss and when I woke up it was raining sunday morning, went back to bed. Hope the show was fun! How big of a spacer do you think ill need/could I put on there and be safe? Any help would be great! Thanks!

just go with 1/4" spacer... That's fine to use without extended lugs. i think you can even get awayy with a 3/8" spacer if needed... but that's the biggest you can run safely without getting extended lugs...

Get the lethal 3/8" spacer/extended lug nut kit and that should work awesome. Get a set for the front and rear so you maintain the look. But also make sure you take measurements to make sure you can make that work and not have tires sticking out of the fenders. Thats a darn shame though that happening.
