You can try Leong Seng at Paya Ubi for 2nd hand rims. They have lots of them. I was there on Saturday.

not necessary for a spacer at the rear. +38 has got nothing to do with it.....

its not necessary. I added a 15mm spacer for added stability and that also helped aesthetics by makin the rim flushed with the body of the car.

If that case, then won't a higher offset rim be better to create a flush look.

yep. but then again, offset is terms of mm. If u took +40 and +42, basically, u don't see much. Hence, a 15mm spacer does make the difference obvious.
