can you put 18x7.5 rims with 45mm offset and not have that rear crossmember problem or what ever it is???

also can i use some metal washers as spacing temporarily???

i think the highest offset allowable is
40et?? some has 42 but with confirmed rubbing


i wouldnt even try using washers as spacers
for safety reason :shock:
inferior washer can get crushed while tightening
and your wheel will wobble
