Wheel Spacer?
Ok I'm trying to get everything set up for my freebie rear end to go under my car in the next couple days with 3.73s already installed
. I know that I will need to enlarge the lca bolt holes and the fact that the rear end I am using is 1.75" narrower than the stocker that's in place right now. I need to know where to find 3/4" wheel spacers. On stangmods I found the 1" spacers but dont know if i want those. somebody suggest a size that will look good and correct the offset size of the rear end.
also i need input on girdle covers.

It's only 1" shorter so you'll need 1/2" spacers. Also, use a unibit to enlarge your holes, that way they'll be centered properly and not too large, you're only going from 12mm to 14mm, that's not very much.

In my looking on AM ive come up with this:
http://www.americanmuscle.com/h-r-spacers-25mm.html
http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustang-v6reargridle.html
The rear thats going in my car doesnt have a tlok or any from of lsd so that is the first thing on the list along with a tuner (doesnt matter if its new or used yet). the spacers may get put off a couple weeks along with the girdle.
My main concern is will those spacers give the tires the aggressive look of the wheelwell being full, will they stick out to much, or are they just not enough?
