Default Late wheels on an early car spacers wanted

I just picked up some late offset C2 replicas and want to mount them on my early car. What are some of my options for spacers? Does anyone have any available?
Thanks,

The difference between early and late offset is 29mm. Something around an inch (25.4mm) to an inch and a half (38.1mm) would work. If they're not extremely wide, I'd go with the inch and a half to fil out the wheelwells a little better.

They are 7.5 & 9 x 17. So do I need 1 inchers on all 4? Any thoughts on where to source them?

well I threw them on to see how they look. They don't look awful but I do want spacers. Tires will need to be replaced very soon, at least the rears and I probably shouldn't drive on the hoosiers on the street.
