Tire rubbing issue

I have American Racing 15" rims with I think 225 65 r15 tires


they rub the front fenders, would spacers stop this since
these are aftermarket rims.. this doesnt make sense to
me since my stock wheels which are 245 50 R16 rims (bigger rims, and bigger and wider tires) fit perfect and dont rub....


answers anyone? where can I get spacers

You should check the backspacing of the rims. Goto www.skulte.com and look in the adaptor section. He shows you how to measure it, and he also sells quality spacers.
