Beware!
There are two different kinds of style 138: one for the xi, and one for the i.
Be sure you are getting the correct kind.

Thanks you all! iam new to this
What?s the diff between the I and the XI? here what happened I bought the tires that you saw in the pix however when I took them to my mechanic to have them put on, the tire dint fit in a sense that when it was bolted in it wouldn?t rotate and it was touching the roters or whatever u call them very tight hope you can understand what I wrote. Any advice? Also the tire size is 225 50 17 maby the rim is no good, how bout the tire??

They should work with 23mm spacers. The xi rims are ET43, and the i rims are ET20.
Does anyone know a reputable brand and source for spacers?
