Should I space front and rear or just rear?

Just space the rear. A 1" spacer should work near perfect.

on the corvette wheels if you buy the ones with the deep dish in the rear do you need a spacer

The factory offset is what matters; not the depth of the dish. 99% sure on any vette wheel, you will need a 1" spacer to make it look good on a SyTy. Range Rover, Audi and BMW wheels normally don't require a spacer to look good on a SyTy (and they have some pretty nice looking wheels, albeit $$$).

With vette wheels, if you go the same size all the way around, ie 9.5's, then you will need spacers to even them out. If you go with 11" rears, no spacers required.

I believe that mine are the 10 inch rears and I need the spacer

I looked into a bunch of different take-offs and alot of the BMW wheels will make the fronts stick way out

Vette 11" x 17" wheels may or may not need spacers, depending on year and model. '96 Grand Sports do not need them, '89-'95 ZR1's do. Later wheels from C5's and C6's will all need some kind of spacer.
