Hi,
I have just moved a set of hoosiers from rivieras to a set of 4 bolt fuchs.

Now I have severe rubbing on the inside of the rear tires...

I guess I will need some spacers, but where can I get the right ones...I used the pep boys 5 bolt/re-drilled ones and I dont want to do that again....it was not very safe IMHO...

Or, can I change my alignment to make it better???

with a tire as fat as the Hoosier, I think they work better on a wheel with the "wrong" backspacing. 4" like on the Riv's, Empi's or Westerns seems just right.

Call Rich at HPH for 1/4" spacers. that may not be enough.
Make sure your lugs are long enough if you don't have studs pressed into your rotors.

I had my Hoosiers on 5.5" rims for quite some time. On the 7" rims with 5" backspace I'm dancin' mueba.gif
