Just a thought...
What is the width on the stock 18's? I have the turbo twist style wheels and my rear tires are the OEM 265-35-18

I think the cost of new wheels and tires is prohibitive and my tires are brand new, I could buy knockoffs and then sell my current setup and maybe come out okay cost wise

I like my wheels, the only wheels that I would switch to would be carrera lights and knockoffs would be fine, but I do like my existing wheels I just want the wheels to be more flush with the outer edge of the wheel wells. I think spacers would be the cheapest way to accomplish that

Not sure if 14, 15, or 18 in the rear is the right size, I'll go measure the gap and find out
