There are hub centric spacers. I know project kic makes rings for their's. My dad's M3 has a hub centric one too and it is a sandwich type.

It's rubbing on the inner fender. I can see where the inner fender is getting alittle damaged from the tires hitting the fender. I don't know what kind of suspension I have because it was already lowered when I bought the car. I leave the tems button on "sport" to stiffen it up when I turn to avoid the front tires from hitting the fender. Yes, the wheels are in the wheel wells about 1/4 inch. I will be changing my suspension sometime next year so it'll be alittle higher.

No, my fenders are stock. I'm avoiding rolling them because I just want to keep it as stock as possible(or better).

More than likely the person before you did not use Illumina 2's and therefore your TEMS button isn't doing anything. I wasn't very clear in my previous post but I think you answered my post anyways. I wanted to know if it was contacting the inner fender liner (black plastic) or the metal part of the body work. From your answer it sounds like body work.
Your car sits lower than the majority of people on this board and as such advice for you will need to be different. If you plan on raising your car when you swap suspension, I would bet you will no longer have a rubbing issue. In the mean time you might benefit from a slight roll of the metal edge. This would hopefully make it less likely for the tire to grab and pull on the body work. You can do this yourself and there are tutorials online to show you how. If you do it very gently, it won't be much different than stock.
It wont even be different from stock. You can also just trim the lip too if you don't want to run the risks of rolling.
Would the problem just be my front shocks? I've had the car for almost 3years now and I haven't really thought about changing the suspension setup until I bought the wheels just about a month ago. I know for sure that if I change the whole suspension I won't have any problems at all. I just need a starting point. Also, I don't drive the supra much just about (maybe) 5 times a month.

the problem is the offset is to low for your height so you are rubbing on the lip of the fender.
Yep. MKIII guys are generally too conservative, but sometimes I feel the drifter and VIP guys are TOO aggressive as well. Here's my ride.

please mod the body it reminds me of the early '90s when "people" did that with corollas, tercels, civics, impalas and/or any kind of mini truck:nono:
they still do it here...
lowered truck with wheels like that, tires WAY too small for the wheel, and rollbar, brushguard, ect...
yeah, that's worse than rice...

I want to run the work emotion 18x8.5 +35 and 18x9.5 with a deep offset but how much can I go with it?
