why dont you get new wheels with the offset you want, If you are just getting steel ones would be cheaper and more legal. or try to get your wheels modified.

just an idea

You could also grind the caliper. Cheapest option so far :?:

Fitting spacers and grinding calipers whilst both work are just another reason to get you into trouble with the authorities.

Do you have to run 15 inch rims. Why not run the correct rim size?
