Default wheel spacers

I would like the stock wheels on my C8 to align as close as possible to the fender. Can someone recommend a set of spacers that I can accomplish this with? Also, how safe are spacers? I've never used them before. Thanks!

Just say, "No." Wheel placement is where it is for a variety of legitimate reasons, which a bit of personal esthetics do not override... imho Enjoy your Vette.

Keep in mind that you'll splash guards or PPF protection as moving the wheels out increases the amount of stuff hitting the paint.
