hey. i have mucked around with spacers and wot not before. The safest 'spacer' i reckon are the bolt on jobbies that you can get for silvias i 4x 114.3 pcd. they are aluminium and use the original wheel studs to bolt the spacers onto the hub and have their own studs threaded in the aluminium.

as for the wheels rubbing on full lock the only things i can suggest is modifing you steering lock stop mounts by welding some little spacer blocks on for that your wheels dont rub, or reduce your tyres aspect ratio.

how low is your scorp? i have 17's on my Gd galant and they dont rub on full lock and its been lowered 40mm in the front.

On my GJ Rallycar, I use 15" alloys from a VR4 which has a totally wrong off-set, but I think they look great. I use the same studded spacers as 'astronturbo' to correct the off-set without any problems. Rallying is a good test to see what works ! :)
I'm here for a good time, not a long time !

I could go on all day about spacers, but instead I'll actually tell you where you can get them.

It's put these baby's on or change wheels. The guys in Japan have been using these hubs for donkeys years, no dramas.
