Don't know exactly whats needed for the front, but for the rears a mini tub might get the job done. To convert the rear brakes to disc, visit kore3.com, they have c5 to c6z brake set ups for our cars. Also you can get some wilwoods as well.

I had 85 Corvette wheels on my 99 GMC Sonoma (s15) I bought aluminum spacers from stainless steel brake corp. I am sure other companies sell spacers. I think had 1.75 in front and 2.25 in the rear, (going off memory from 8+ years ago)

Something like this http://www.ezaccessory.com/Wheel_Ada...FY64Kgod0DzPnw

Only get the billet ones, the cast aluminum ones suck.

Forgot to mention, relocating the rear shock as well, they are to close to the wheels.
