Default Was about to finally mount my new tires...

And when I do, the place tells me that the 25mm hubcentric (eBay ) spacers I needed for the offset of my C5 rims (front have an offset of 58mm and rears 65mm) didn't fit the inner lip. Do you think that 5x4.75 isn't the right size, the guys are just dumb and it's a tight fit, or the eBay cheapies just aren't cut/measured perfectly?

THIS:





DOESN'T LINE UP EASILY WITH THE INSIDE LIP OF THIS:
(unless you need to force it or something that I'm unaware of)




Please don't lecture me about spacers being dangerous or whatever. I want these rims, and the offset is huge. This is how I'm doing it. I just need some help to get it done. I mean really, look how scared and alone these Nitto's and Continentals look in my garage...

Sounds like the hub centric spacers are not the right hub size for your car/wheels. The bolt pattern is correct.
