Spacers. I think the syliva's are around a +45 or +38 offset, Starions are +18

Yeah I agree. Spacers will be the go. There is a speed shop in penrose that can do aluminium bolt on spacers any specs you like. A mate of mine just got a set of 30mm ones for $240! I can find out the name of the shop tomorrow.?

Spacers are not legal :( :( . Your insurance can be void in the event of an accident if you are unlucky to get a smart assed insurance assessor. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you need to be aware of this
