The only thing that sucks about spacers is that it makes the wheel stick out a little...looks tacky on some cars.

Re: (EFz6er)
Would wheel spacers really help? How does that affect the fact that he can't shoehorn his si wheels over the brakes?? 
Or is it only the innermost part of the wheel that's scraping? So that extra few mm's would fix the problem...?

Re: (mahatma)
if the inside of the rim is hitting/rubbing the caliper then spacers are the solution. or you could grind off the calipers a little bit....but I would just go get some spacers.

only if you over do it, we have all seen the "lowrider's" with wire wheels where the tire is not even under the car, but on most cars a slight spacer might make the car look even better. imo
