    Default Wheel spacers and optimum offset for 14x7's?

    Was going to fit some ma61's (14x7 +8) but want them to sit as flush as possible, after rolling the lips, but not required flaring. What would be the optimum offset for 7inch wheel? Was thinking getting some 5, 10 or even 15mm spacers. Are there any problems running spacers, are they unsafe, what types should be used?

    Lots of people frown upon them personally I run them and don't have a problem.
    Wouldn't go anymore than 20mm though
    And get the hub centric bolt-on type
    Kkr ones by otomoto are on special atm FYI.
    MOPAR or no car!

    if your going to run slip on spacers, make sure you get extended wheel studs.
    i am currently running 15x8.5-+0 with a 10mm spacer with the extended wheel studs and have not had a problem what-so-ever.
    the front end still feels really solid and dont see anything going wrong really apart from bearings blowing out a little more often than usual?
