Default OEM deep dish c5's

I just got in a set of thin spoke c5's 17x9.5 & 18x10.5.......the front fits fine but the back need spacers...can someone direct me to the spacers and the size I need PLEASEEEEE!! The offset for the front is 54mm and the back is 56mm. I have no idea where and what size spacers to get.

double check your rear is centered and what size tires are you running?

You will most likely need about a 3/4" spacer, it looks like its off by about .787" (20mm) in the rear. You need a 36mm offset on a 10.5-11" wheel.

make sure it's centered with an adjustable panhard bar before you get the spacers.

Do a search on the board, adjustable panhard bar center the rear of your axle, 99 percent of them are not centered perfect from the factory, so if it's off the left or right you will get rubbing.
