I've been doing up some research on the forums about wheel spacers and I'm not sure if I like the idea of them at all. It seems like billet hub-centric spacers are ideal.



If you are unsure of spacers, do it right and do one of the following:
1. Run different offset front and rear
2. Run a wider rear that takes the same offset as the front

I currently run a 60" rear with 1/4" steel spacers and offset shackles for +45 18x9.5 and 265's or 275's square. Rotating tires was a requirement of mine when building the car.

The deal Tomswheels offered you is a smoking good deal.


Math:
60" rear width put tires almost touching the leafs with +45mm offset, ~11" wide tires, and offset shackles. 1.825/2= .9125" = 23.2 mm. Therefore, of you run a 21.8mm offset with the same width tire, you'll need a 1/4" spacer to get away from the leaf.

Tomswheels set up gets my vote. Run the +24 in rear with offset shackles and a 1/4" steel spacer, and the +30 up front (going to be tight on the fender depending on your alignment and ride height).

There is zero issue with a 1/4" or smaller spacer.
