I've been trying for a while to find wheel spacers. I have a 98 impreza 2.2 and want to be able to fit 205 width tires on it for autocrossing.
I'm thinking 1/4 or 3/16 inch spacers would do the trick, but I can't seem to find any anywhere.
Do any of you guys know where I can find some online, and how big would I need to fit 205 width tires?
Any help would be appreciated.

I guess a follow up question would be, do I actually NEED spacers to fit 205 width tires.
I have very little clearance in the back, and don't want to have rubbing issues. This is a 2.2 liter impreza, not a 2.5.

I have enough room on the outside with the wheel well, its the strut that is very close and makes me worry -- so basically I want to move the wheels out a little bit.
I think with a different offset, it would work fine. The wrx wheels probably have a lower offset that would pull them out further.
I'm not sure what the best thing to do is.

well based on how wheel my wrx wheels fit, try to find wheel with the same offset or take the ones you have and buy spacers to compensate for the difference
