What Spacers to Match Front?

Hey Ya'll,
I was really unsure of how 4x275-40s would look on my '03 GT. However, I ended up being pleased with it. The only problem is that my rear tires seem more sunk in then the front. Even though they should technically be evenly aligned. I figured I'll just throw some spacer on the rear until new tires are needed. 285s rear and 255 or 245s up front should suffice.
Any way, what do you all think will be a good sized spacer to use on the rear to make it better looking? I'm thinking a 1/2" spacer should do the trick. I really don't want to do anything more then 1", in fear of uneven tire wear, wearing down bearings...etc
Thanks,
Ceyko

My research shows that if it is under 1/2" the spacers just come with holes for your existing lugs. I need to verify, but you should be safe with 6 full turns on the lug nuts. If it is above 1/2", they have lug nuts added to them...overall their installations look darned easy.
Just tricky picking a good size IMO.
Take care,

Hey you got a sunroof. I only seen that once before. Can you order that or is it aftermarket?

I've seen ONE here as well... and I never thought they came from the factory like that either. I think it must be something aftermarket, because like someone said, you can't choose to get them on there when you order.
No, technically they are perfectly even. It is the body shape that causes the rears to be more sunk in. The fronts and the rears are exactly the same size tires and wheels.
Yeah, I'll lower my car once I decide on a full suspension to put in it. I am not just going to throw some lowering springs on her and call it the day.

I'll take opinions.
