yeh, tyres rubbin on the arches.. theres very little room already, widening the track would leave you having to extend the arches to fit the wheels in without scrubbing..
Dont stress at me, its not my fault your slower...

Before we can give you an answer as to which spacers to use..... We need to know what wheels( size,width, offset etc)and size of tire to be fitted to the wheel. it also wouldn't hur to let us know if the car has been lowered...<P>After we know that information we can give you a hand.<P>Cheers,

I recommend getting the wheels first and THEN seeing if you need spacers.
