Default Wheel spacers

Since the Crossfire stays nice and warm in the garage in the winter months, we have a Mercedes GLK for an everyday car. I ordered a set of 17" wheels to put Blizzaks on, but I need a 1" spacer on all 4 wheels to make them work. Should I just find new wheels or where could I get spacers for it without spending a fortune. Thanks and Happy New Year!

1 inch? I wouldn't recommend spacers that big. Try a wheel with a differant offset.

Thanks. I have never bought spacers before and did not know the recommended maximum length. Well, time to put the wheels up for sale.

keep in mind you have the bolts to go along with the spacers. An inch is a bit much and would be very expensive even if they made them... If you need that much room, I would agree with FP, time for some winter wheels...
