    1) Yes. Spacers.
    2) Tires all stretch differently. Some a lot easier than others.

    1) I feel stupid now about that first question cause i was aware of that lol i didn't make myself clear enough though hah
    I ment when they have the lip of the wheel sticking off the tire more(like all the stanced cars on here have)..but i was wondering if i can do it with a stock wheel

    2)I get a smaller tire right? I have a 16"wheel and tire specs are 205/55/16's...what size would i go with?

    Anyone can chime in and help me out

    1. You can do it with ANY wheel, you just have to stretch your tire. Meaning run a narrower tire then what is "recommended" perse.
    2. Yeah, if you current specs are 205/55 drop it to say 185/50. Meaning, narrower tire will be stretched on your wheels.

    I do not recommend stretching tires onto your stock wheels, but to each their own. Upgrade to a 17 or 18 inch wheel with a proper offset to eliminate the need for spacers
