Set back plates + ????

Hey all, first off I did search, but did find what I was looking for.
I have the beltec lowering springs, and a 3 inch block on my sy ( Don't really care about ride quality, I just like it low ) and I hate how the wheel will sit 1.5inches from the front Cladding and 3+ inches from the rear cladding. Tomorrow I will get around to ordering the set back plates, but those are only 1/2 an inch. It looks to me like I will need at least 1in-1.5in to get it centered. So my question is what more can I do to get this wheel centered? Too bad I can't just drill a new hole 1/2 an inch back through the leafs and mount it up there... :roll:

Re: Set back plates + ????

There was someone on here that was selling custom lowering blocks that incorporated a 1/2" set back.

I just bought a set of aluminum lowering blocks from autozone, then I welded a filler plate into the bottom of them and drilled a new hole 1/2" back:

I hate the way the wheels aren't centered in the wheel-wells from the factory.
