^^^^ listen to this man^^^^
if you have non-sport suspension and buy larger wheels, the wheel gap won't go away - it'll actually look even worse cause you're going to look like an SUV.
Shocks and springs, then wheels.

Spacers come in a variety of widths 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm and go between...
your wheel and your wheel hub to reduce the offset and push the wheel out towards the edge of the fender. It provides a very nice look when properly done.

Do you (or any of you who use spacers) notice added road rash (m)
with your wheels pushed out more than stock?
I like the look of teh wheels pushed out from the fender (a bit) but have always been worried about rocks and crap hitting the sides of the car.
Thanks.
