Spacers would be the only way unless you go with a lower offset wheel.

i'm thinking of lowering my car so you think i'll need to roll my fenders if i go with spacers? i'm thinking of going with 4mm spacers.

Why would you want them to stick out? Traction comes better when they're under the car.

It looks mean ,but like LS1rulz said, you would perform better if you didnt put them out.

Rrrrrice. LOL!
Seriously, it's hard enough to get a set of aftermarket wheels to fit this car. If you have wheels that fit, leave them alone! Don't go the way of the ricer, worrying more about looks than performance.
