Spacers

What sort of spacer size will I be looking at for 182 wheels on a nonsport, they rubbing on the front in a straight line, and full lock its literally impossible to move, the back is fine though although the wheels do look a bit lost under the arches, so will I be needing just a small spacer to stop rubbing or what?

Cheers

so im presuming your car is lowered ? and they wheels are spaced so far they rub ? if so, put smaller spacers on ?

No, it isn't lowered (yet) and the wheels aren't spaced, I'm asking what sort of spacing I would need, its quite hard to tell how drastic 5mm or 25mm could be.

Can't get a pic right now, but crappy drawings here I go!

1 = Wheel

2 = Arch

3 = Rubber cone thing

If you imagine this is the driver side front wheel facing you as a cross section, the red is rubbing against the rubber at the green part.

These two pics are from the driver and passenger front wheels, you can see roughly where they're in contact with the wheel.

Heck, do I even need those rubber cones? Or will a 195 width tyre on the front wheels help?
 
Wheels are to big.

What wheels were on and what are they now ?? wouldn't drive it for now your gonna f*ck the tires.
