Nice wheels for sure. You are gonna want rear spacers in the 1/2" size to make them even with the fronts. PM Mike, here is his username. AllianceAutoSports
He has all sort of different sizes but IMO I'd go with the 1/2"ers

No cause the spacers go between the rear spindle and axle. Not between hub and wheel.

really?? I called Island Motorsports and they told
me that i would need longer studs for 10mm or 12
they told me H&R spacers with studs would be $110?!?!

im kinda lost on this
also how do i roll my rear fenders without messing them up
i know for sure my tires will rub if i get those spacers
i heard of some people using a baseball bat but does that really work??

They make 2 kinds of spacers. The right kind go in back. The wrong kind go between the wheel and hub and require longer studs and also put un needed pressure on the wheel bearings. Always go with the OTG style spacers that go between the axle beam and backing plate.

Did you PM AllianceAutoSports and ask him for a quote on the rear spacer shims. They are like 45 bucks plus shipping for the 1/2 inch ones.
