Spacers? Going from 285 to 315
Spacers? Going from 285 to 315 I know a lot of people run a 315 no issues, but most have been on 17" wheels with a better offset. I am running 18" c5z06 replicas with a 56mm offset, and had to do some BFH massaging and removing of the bump stops to get the 285's to fit. I now have some 315's waiting to go on, but with the clearance issues I had before, I am not sure if the 315's will clear and I don't know how much more I can BFH the fender wells. So now the only options I can think of is longer studs (one inch), but with spacers, are there one inch spaces, or might that stick the wheels out too far? Anyone had this issue and know how to resolve this? Thank you for the help.
Also, due to my apartment complex and lack of tools, it's hard for me to do a lot of taking wheels on/off/measure/cut ect. I am trying to get this done in ONE shot, and luckily I have some friends to help, but I don't want to waste their time either with me not getting the right stuff from the get go.

I bought some 3/16ths spacers from Allstar Products at the local speed shop and that gave me enough clearance. I had extra long studs on my Moser 9" axle's so no problems with stud length for my car.
I am mainly worried about too much spacer and having the wheel stick out way past the fender. A little is fine, but I don't want to have to play the pay for a bunch of spacers and trial and error everything.
Fenders are gonna get rolled no matter what, but with my stock springs and everything, that is not my issue. What brand spacers, and did you run new studs? Link to spacers?
