I need help. Cant decide between my heart and brain

[rayroderick1981]

I purchased XIX X15 wheels from carid. The 22x10.5 actually hit the brake caliper. They have offered to give mehub centric wheel spacers but im so unsure of this. I dont want to cause an accident because i put a spacer on. They only need to come out a little but Im affraid of what may happen just because I dont know alot about spacers. The problem is I wait forever to ourchase anything until i know this is exactly what I want. Im in love with these rims they are me not in your face flashy but not unnoticeable. They speak to who I am, "Im hereI will try to improve thinga but Im not trying to out shine anyone. Im on the team" please help me. Are wheel spacers safe? I dont race or sbould I just send them back and wait and hope I find another rim that is what I consider my image in a rim.

I just got rims off of Amazon..rears fit great...fronts hit brake caliper...9.5 rear 8.5 front...I put H&R 30mm hubs on front....super strong....pushes front wheel to just inside fender lip...makes the tire setup look square....keep the rims....peace out

Use the spacers. As long as they aren't plastic spacers, you're ok.

Hard to believe 22 inch donks aren't in your face but I digress. Spacers are relatively safe as long as they are 5mm or less. When you start going over that you'll either need new studs or spacers with studs built into them. Good luck.

FYI..these are HUB CENTRIC adapters....our wheels register on the center ring....THIS is the important item that can not be over looked....of course minimum thread turn is included...check out the H&R adapters...pricy but strong...what is your life worth?
