I'm new here so sorry if this has been coved but I didn't find the info I was looking for. I have a 2004 Grand Marquis and I just picked up a set of vintiques smoothies on craigslist. They're 16x7, 5 on 4.5 so I thought I was good to go but surprise surprise the calipers rub! I know I could get spacers but I have no experience with them and I wouldn't want to screw up my car. Are there any hub centric spacers that will work with these older style wheels. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
