srt8 wheels rubbing

I have srt8 wheels with eagle F1 245-45-20 tires on a 300c (front), 255-45-20 (rear). I am ONLY having a problem with my front tires rubbing as well as the wheel. The inner wheel as well as the inner tire is just touching or rubbing the steering arm. I have to run a spacer. Does anyone have an idea where I can get a spacer from? Thanks

Go here, it shouldn't be that expensive to make some. They're just 1/4" sheet metal typically.

I don't know why they'd be rubbing. The SRT8's also sit 1/2" lower than the C's do.

pawalu,

Also, don't forget to check with one of your local tire/wheel shops to see if they possibly have a couple of 1/4" spacers in stock...most do and the cost should be minimal.
