If you have wheel spacers, Read this! Help!
 
So hopefully I got the attention of someone who can be my savior.

My predicament: I recently moved to sportmaxes for the street. I did small flares in the rear and pulled/altered the front fenders to fit. The plan was to do all this so that I could clear some nice 15x8 or possibly even 15x9 track wheels.
Obviously, the track wheels I have - Team Dynamics 15x7 +30 would look ridiculous now, with the wider fenders. However, I am 6 days away from Miatas @ MRLS event, and the budget has not yet allowed for me to get new track wheels.

So, I'm stuck using the 15x7's at Laguna. I realllllly don't want to spend $100 on wheel studs and another $140 on 1/2" spacers to avoid looking absurd at this event when I want to put that money towards new track wheels soon.

So, if ANYONE has wheels spacers, I am willing to get some longer wheel studs, since those are a necessity when using spacers, and it's not a bad thing to have anyways, and will give someone a deposit if they will loan me their spacers for next weekend. At the end of the weekend, you can keep $20 of the deposit for helping me out.

Someone please rescue me from the situation I've gotten myself in.

If the car is fast you know it won't matter what it looks like.

I'd rather look stupid than run 1/2" wheel spacers on track.
