for the fronts not to rub i got them at a local parts store (Murray's Auto). You can get them anywhere. I went with 5/8" but non-hubcetric (spacer only). i dont recommend this for a permanent solution as it reduces the size of your studs which can cause them to snap. i put them on temporarily until i can get smaller tires. make sure you have 3/4" of bolt left after you put the spacer on.

to bring the rears to the fender instead of being tucked in i got 1.25" hubcentric spacers off ebay which can be a permanent solution:

really once u spend 100-150 on spacers u will be right at about the price of some take-off gt bullitts that have the correct offsett but hubcentric spacers would work fine for long term i would just periodically check them to make sure they are tight, also put loktite on the spacers

I think American Muscle and Stangmodshave some spacers if you're looking.

Got the rims on. they look awesome. didnt need spacers except to bring the rears out a lil bit. rubbing only occurrs when i have the wheel turned to the max and i never turn that hard so for now they are all good. thanks for the advice
