3rd gen wheels dont fit, but why?

Why do my wheels not fit? I got the rears on... But the front hit the shock. I got 1/4 inch spacer, but it still hits ... wtf? I thought spacers allowed us to put the wheels on our cars. I even tryed two 1/4 inch spacers, and it still hits. I am using 225 wide tires. grrr...

You need 1" (25mm) spacers in the front minimum for FD wheels.

You need at least a 20mm spacer or about 3/4".
This has been covered countless times already, and a proper search would've gave you the answer.
