wheels dont clear fron calipers
19 x 9.5 +30 235/35/19
19 x 10.5 +30 275/30/19
My rear tires/wheels sit perfectly. front wheels dont clear the calipers. Im talking like 5mm or less.
1)My question is should i get spacers cuz that will force the wheel to stick out even more and i will probably need longer lugs requiring me to remove the hub and replace the lug ( expensive process).
2)Or i can shave down the caliper to where the front wheels will clear.
I want to know the safest route. ive hear horror stories of people breaking their lugs on the spacers. I just want the same thing happening to me.
your advice is appreciated.

I had rear fenders rolled pulled today. Nothing to the front since they don't seem like they need rolling. I know the fender tab will be a pita so ill have to relocate that.
The shop said y might want to get extended lugs if you will do a spacer. The lugs didn't seem like they came out far with the wheel mounted which is what scared me

I just left for spring break and the wheels are getting refinished. Ill put up the picture when I get, it literally need an extra 2-3mm to clear. I'm just worries that I'm already running negative camber in the rear I might have to do the same for the front.
And what kind of spacer to get. I've been told to get hub centric spacer but what brand...there's so many
