Just go to the wreckers or walk along the side of the road, I'm sure there's heaps.
Either way, that's where they end up when the wheels fall off. Or at any tyre/wheel shop that requires money over safety.

I also try to convince people of these facts, as I also have a family and have seen wheels come off. Widening of a wheel track to fit bling isn't the smartest idea, and yes thousands of people do it.

i have only ever heard about the problem with spacers/adaptors in the 1 car in wa.
by fitting the adaptors and au wheels to an el u arent neccesarily widening the track though. my spacers are fitted to my family car (2 adults 2 kids) and i dont see any difference in having e series offset wheels as they have thicker hubs anyway |

i saved this pic ages ago, thought it might be usefull here.
p.s. wheel spaces should be in the "driveline" section one would think as its not really a 6cyl motor question.
