Spacer Plates for wheels

Hello

On my 120y I managed to get 12" wheels to fit over 200b brakes with no rubbing, but the con was it took 12mm of spacing. I did this using two spacers plates per front wheel which is as dodgy as hell. One day I'll go around a corner and the wheel studs will snap.

I've been told to get 13"s but I want the standard wheel. I have it lowered and with 14"s I get wheel arch rub, and with 13"s I have to have skinny tires as sometimes when cornering at higher speeds it will still rub. I found some nice straight guards and the whole car is painted so im not going to modify any guards and folding up the wheel arch lip weakens the whole guard, when people lean on it it can bend it.

I can get 12" rims with 185 tires no rubbing even around corners. My problem is I need some proper spacers plates manufactured that will locate the wheel and be in one piece as opposed to my two generic ones per wheel that just sit there not even central.

Is anyone out there able to makes these and how much would it cost? I have two 120y's and what to do them both.

Thanks
