Cool 5-15mm spacers that I can borrow for 1 day? (Seattle area)

I'm trying to figure out the perfect spacer for the new AutoX wheels I got...does anyone have a set of spacers between 5-15mm??

**I'd only need to borrow them for the day to test fit.


thanks


-I'm already borrowing Drivesolo's 5mm, and need to figure out how much further I can push the wheels out (hoping to fit 315's in the rear )



these are the new rims :

Peter, I've got a st of 5mm spacers that I actually borrowed from Noel awhile back. Don't need them anymore, and they're just sitting in the garage. Give me a call.

you can go to schucks or something and grab some cheap 7/16" spacers. that comes out to about 11mm. or, just use stacked up washers. jack the car up and remove the springs in the rear (and disconnect your sway bar) and jack the suspension through its whole course of travel. <best way to do it!
