I heard Auto Zone has them. They come in universal 4 or 5 lug. Made from aluminum I believe.

Are you just gonna use them to push the wheels out a little bit? I was actually wondering what that would look like since it would widen the stance a little bit.

no really the coilovers are much smaller diameter spring

im pretty sure if you wanna go more than just a centimeter or so, you
have to go with adaptors...similar to the ones that change your bolt pattern

on average they start around 1" each

I didn't know what the hell you were talking about, until I went out to Circuit City and saw this Blazer with overly large rims and those feelers.
I saw it, and the light bulb came on and I couldn't stop laughing.
