Interesting. Sounds like you have measured and have a plan. I would do a little more research though on other guys who run these wheels, especially those who are bagged. I don't believe any of them run a front spacer, and that's on purpose to get the most offset for tucking/ clearance purposes. You do see a rear spacer to both clear the hub bore as well as move the wheels out a bit since they have such large offset.

Keep us posted, it sounds like you found some spacers you like. Good luck!
