I'm not from your area but I would say get 15mm spacers. I'm running 19x10 offset +40 and I'm running 10mm spacers.

Speed stars in Pacific Mall?

BTW sorry for crappy iphone picture but check this out:



Now i have another problem after I installed these my front wheels and steering wheel go all crazy and start shaking and the car pulls to the left. Any Ideas on what it might be?

One guy told me thats because I used the spacers and I should stick to my old rims. (which obviously I don't have) the other guy told me that the front right tire is some how weirdly worn out so all the shakiness is caused by it and I just need to get a new set.
Really need your help with that one cause' I can't drive this car at all =/

I just went to Wheels Direct in Scarborough and told them "I just installed new rims/tires, and now my steering wheel is shaking. Figure it out." They're very busy, so it took like 2+ hours. But it ended up only costing me around $45 for the rings and balancing of 1 wheel.

Off to Scarborough then =) Hope they'll fix me up today cause' i feel sort of crappy about not being able to drive my car normally

remark:

I'm at wheels direct right now appears that my tires are crap but they managed to fix the problem)) the service here is the best)) thnx for advice))

Problem was caused' by unevenly worn tires =) But as it appeared they can easily be worn for another season =)
