Rims fitment question
So I scored some free 15x8 rims today and some trashed rubber from a friend. It's the same bolt pattern 5x4.5. We mocked them up and they "fit" however 33's on stock suspension with no trimming do not go well together. Keep in mind they were only mocked up to make sure they fit, and were never driven on obviously since they are flat.
Now my question is, around the "hub" part of the rim there is about a 1/4" space between the hub on the rotor/axle and the wheel. Will this be a problem, and should I have a hubcentric ring or spacer machined to insert between and fill the gap?
I'll try and snap some pictures tomorrow morning in the daylight if it will clear up any confusion but for now here are my mock up pictures lol.
EDIT: The last cropped picture kind of shows the "gap" I was talking about.....
