Are the wheels a different offsets front and back? This is the first ive heard some one using a spacer in the back because they look to be more inside.

BLACK background is the answer to my question!

Well just by looking at them, the rear wheels look like they have less offset.
They are not flush to the fender as the front are.

It doesnt mean that is true but I am 100% sure it will look a lot better with 3mm or 5mm spacer at the back. They can take it easily.

This is just how our cars are. With the same size/offset wheels, the fronts will be more poked than the back. If you look at the Wheel Fitment Guide Chart, you'll see that for flushness in back you need more poke than for flushness in front.

Some new pictures with the 3mm spacers at the back that I got this week.

It look better but I have order another set of 5mm spacer.

With the 5mm spacers it will be just perfect for me.
