running 16" Formula turbo wheels

I'm thinking of upgrading to the turbo/WS6 wheels if I can find them.
I understand I will need the 1/8"(?) wheel spacers for fitment. Are these
required for both the front and back wheels? Were the wheel stud lengths
on the WS6 Formula longer? And will there be any clearance issues with the
stock cast iron drum brakes in the rear?

They should be direct bolt on.

The rear rims have a different offset than the front. If they are put on the front they could rub on the outer tie rods.
