I assume you have a front wheel drive car & the wheels aren''t 5x115 or 114.3 other wise you wouldn''t need the adapters you are using. If that''s the case you can buy 1" adapters & get rid of the thicker ones but that will only pull them in a little. If the wheels have the correct pcd then just pound up the plates on the struts & you''re good to go.

the only thing i know of to change this is to change the back space on the wheels and or to get rid of the spacers on them so they will fit in there.

but if your hitting anyway then there is only one choice and that is change the back spaceing. or i guess you might beabel to talk with someone and see if you can cut or grind the parts that you hit on in there with out hurting anything
