Default What to do about offset probs?

I bought some 16x7 inch rims w/ 35mm offset for my g3 GSR and I rub everywhere, i mean everywhere. I figure for the back i could roll the fender, but in the front, i dont know... My car is slammed BTW and i dont want to raise it up. Here are some pics for reference



Would wheel spacers do anything for me?

can't do much about it
wheel spacers won't do jack...its just gonna push your wheels out further

raise your car..or get new rims

Yup, +35mm really stick the wheels out far. My +40mm push the wheels out quite a bit, i can't imagine 35's

And the fog lights are OEM

It's not the size of his wheels that are giving him trouble, its the amount of offset he is running. +35mm is huge meaning it pushes your wheels to far to the outside of the car making the track bigger.
