I used 1.25" adapters and the rims go right to the fender on 50mm offset wheels. I got them from the same guy. Fast shipping and the fit and finish are great. Good luck!

What is the offset and width of the wheels you're mounting? Also are they OEM or reproduction, how long are your wheel studs? These four things matter, diameter is not a factor.
