Spacer, Grind, Or Different Wheels
Ok, I crunched the numbers, read the fitment posts, and made some assumptions.
I want a set of Panther chrome 17" Flood wheels with 215/40/17 rubber at stock height. These have a 45mm offset, so according to what I am reading i will either need some one ton garage spacers in the rear, or grind the sub-frame, or find new wheels that fit without mods needed. Am I correct or will these bolt up fine since I am staying at stock height? Thanks for any insight.

Having to use spacers is just a way of telling you to get the "right" size rims in the first place. I'm sure folks will say there's no harm in using spacers, but IMHO, if you need them, you've got the wrong rims...
