Nice deep dish on the rear? pic of the Whole side of the car? or front quater shot?

I added small spacers up front 5mm to avoid scrubbing.. pretty big dish for falcon front rim i have.. and 8mm spacers on the rear to pump them out a bit to give a "fuller" look..

G'day guys I've got a similar question, a bloke I know had 20s on his ba sedan went to put them on his sons ba ute and they hit the upper control arm.
could there have been spacers fitted to the sedan he's just not noticed?, or could there be another reason it's fouling, both 03 base speced.
