Red face spacers and adapters

my rims have something thats like wheel adapters.

but i still need to run spacers...its not safe right?

what other alternatives do i have to fill in the gap caused by my asm rear over fender?

right now my rims are 18x9 +53

and the asm rear adds about 25mm

PLEASE HELP!

if its a spacer with built in studs, like the project kics or h&r then those are fine, but if its a little plate like those ones from Pep Boys, then those are no bueno. the only other option would be to get new rear wheels with lower offsets.

You probably have a centering ring in the wheel. AP2 is correct, you need to get a spacer that has studs in it that you would bolt the wheels onto the spacer. You would need to have a widebody to make this application fit.

Are these spacers safe and will they not cause damage to my S? I'm thinking about going with wider front fenders in the front and dont want to buy new wheels.

Sorry for the question, dont mean to jack your thread.
