    My front rim stops where the pencil is pointing. It is a half inch where my finger is. I assume that's where spacers come in. I searched an it looks like they come in mm sizes. Where can I buy them and what size would 1/2" be?

    So your saying the wheel doesn't slide over were your finger is pointed if that's so sounds like the bore of the rim is to small you may can have them machined to allow for more room

    I found a tire shop that will do it for $30 per wheel.

    For $120, you can buy a Dremel,do it yourself and still have a tool that has high demand when it comes to modifications. That said, what ever you decide take care of that, wheel should ride where finger is
