Default Rims

Hello

I posted a while ago a picture of my car, and Tech said something about the tires and i said i were gonna get new rims, but i decided not to do that, i have noticed that the rear tires are so far into the car that i can put my fingers in there and the space between the tire and the car is like.....1 and a half finger, how can i fix this, i called the mechanic and he said something about a thing that you put in there so the rim would be wherever you like it to be?

The picture is not a picture of my car but thats what im talking about, i like them to look like that

You want it closer to the edge of the wheel well?

I would say you want spacers, but I may be wrong.

It is like a thin plate with holes in them. You remoev the tires install the spacer between the rim and the rotor and install the wheel again.
I will post a pic tomorrow If I can find mine.
