Your still better off using wheels with the proper backspacing, but if you
decide to go with spacers stay away from the aluminum ones as they are
weaker and with your larger tires the lugs do experience a lot of force.

If your rubbing at full turn then all that needs to be done is to increase
the stop with a washer or two.

How many products do you have on your car that the seller of that
product may not be held responsible if your wheel falls off?
