Default 1/4" Wheel spacers???

So spring is a few months away. I have my tires all picked out for my 22" SRT-10 Rims. I'm looking to throw some small 1/4" Wheel spacers on her just so i don't have any rub issues on the control arm. Anyone know where to get these things? I can find the larger spacers on ebay but can't find just 1/4" ones anywhere... Anyone know of an online site or somthing?

You can either stay under 1/4" as your lugs aren't long enough for anything thicker or you will have to jump up to 1-1/4" that provides new studs. Anything in between would require you to cut your lugs down as they will hit the back of the wheels.

What you mean by stay under 1/4"?? 1/4" would be too thick?
