The girlfriend bought a set of drag dr38s in 17x8+47 with 225/45/17 tires and we went to mount the read rims and the rim is hitting the strut. So I just bought a set of 25mm spacers for the rear.
So the spacers should be here in a few days. What else would you guys have done? |

Is that a 1/2" when on the ground or in the air? cause if it's while in the air then it may rub once you put it back down.

It was in the air when test fitted . Once I get the rear spacers and fit them and try the fronts out and drive around and if the fronts rub I'll get some 5mm spacers and go from there. |
