sounds like youve got the wrong rims.
Wrong backspacing. |

you can get spacers. Probably the same price as new rims though, if they are just 15" sunraysias (spelling?) |

Had the same problem, you can get 6mm spacers and the prob is fixed. Not sure of price, now where near the price of rims, it was years ago now. Got them from your local tire pro. |

your right, 6mm would be quite cheap as they dont need to take new studs etc like the 1-2" ones do. |

Have you got the correct rim offsets? I had the same issue with my cruiser offset 16'' rims, I fitted hilux IFS hubs and eliminate problems, spacers really arent the best idea |
