    You're bang on mate, you want hub-centric spacers though, they're a lot safer.

    What you mean by safer are spacers dangerous ? Could you please give me a link where can I buy those hubcentric spacers ? And how much you think cm should I make it ?? If you want I can take picture of the wheel how are they now

    Spacers aren't dangerous, hub centric basically means it uses a plate that sits on the hub, then you get extended wheel bolts to hold the wheel in place. The other type of spacers bolt to the hub, then you bolt your tyre to the hub. So there's two lots of fixings, which are sometimes weak and can cause problems, I'll try and find you a link to some. It's all preference how far you go out and depends on how low your car is before they start to rub
