Rims are to wide and running so im trying to get some spacers. I want bolt on but the smallest I can fine is one inch. And I don't want the crap spacer plates.

who here has one inch spacer and has a pic of there wheels on.

What are your wheel specs? Wheel width, wheel offset. Should be stamped on the inside (or maybe a decal has it).

By "bolt-on" you must mean hubcentric spacers. I've had a set of 1" hubcentrics on my rear with 7" wide +8 offset Celica wheels:

Here is a 15mm one;

Also, wheel specs are needed to give you an estimate.

Example, a 15x7+40 with a 15mm spacer will sit exactly the same as a 15x7+25 without spacer.

Edit// just realised you're probably still running 4-stud.  I know in New Zealand we can get 15mm ones, but our maximum allowed is 27mm so we never get anything bigger than that.

Arro, not all bolt on spacers are hubcentric. I run 1.25" hubcentric spacers in the front, and 1.25" non hubcentric spacers in the rear of my daily. Hubcentric spacers are ideal, however.

You are correct, I just hope people try to run the ringed ones.

i bought some 38mm bolt-on's back in October to use with the factory mk1 turbo wheels on the rear...but they rubbed the fenders on dips, so I pulled them off after about 20 miles of use, and put the 25mm bolt-on's  back on.  Anyway the 38mm's have been sitting on my shelf since.  They are the good hub centric bolt-ons with the slip-in center rings. 
Like these.....
