Guys,

I bought some rims for my car that I really like. My car currently has the 20x9 Foundry wheels so I bought rims the same size but with a different offset. I used a wheels calculator to see if they would fit. Fast forward a week later and Lord and behold when I tried the rims on the front side, it did not fit. It just barely scrapes the caliper. I did the "search" thing but cannot find the minimum amount of offset I need to safely clear the caliper. and to be honest, this is all confusing to me. My car is GT premium with 4 piston calipers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Alex

I would have, believe me but most of the wheels you guys sell, that I like, are a bit pricier than what I had left on my budget. If I had not spent so much money on other goodies for the car perhaps I would have had the money to be able to afford the rims I wanted in the first place. Nonetheless, lesson learned and the help greatly appreciated.

Quick fix brotha a 3 or 5 mm spacer will fix that

Every wheel design is different.
If I buy the spacers, would I have to buy just the for the front or for all four wheels?

No need to buy the spacers brotha, Carlos stated he would send them out for you just pm him your name and address.

As for the spacers only need them for what part its not clearing.

So if their jot clearing all around then youd have them for all 4 corners.

But this seems to be just the front so use them on the front and thats it.
