Ok i just ordered my 18" chrome deep dish bullits today 18x9 front and 18x10 rear the front ones come with 1/4" spacers did any one have any problems accure while installing these or anything i should look for.
what size tires are you going to run, in all the searching I have done there were offsets to fit in almost all wheels?

Most wheel/tire places won't put spacers on a car because of liability issues. They don't want to get sued if your wheel comes off.

I love how the deep dish wheels look but you can never rotate your tires so youll be going through tires pretty quickly and for spacers I heard they were bad I asked a guy and he said definetely not to get them unless you have a show car cause he was working on a car and when they went for a test drive the wheel just rolled away from them cause after a while they supposibly start shredding!
