Loose the spacers. Widebodied Carreras use the same offset as us at the front but the backs are indeed different by about half an inch on the 8" and almost an inch if the rears are 9" wide. Spacers are just making it worse.

I attended a lapping event w/ a guy who had late offset wheels on an early car, pretty narrow looking! But it didn't seem to bother anything, he drove very respectably.
