FD Wheels On FC, Spacers in Back Too?

For putting FD rims on an FC, I know you need spacers, but do you need them for the front AND the back? If I only did the front, would you be able to tell it was sticking out further than the rears?

i think they clear everything in the back without spacers, but they would look funny.

Yep, he is right

FD wheels will fit on the back without spacers, but will be very sunken in (moreso than the stock FC wheels), and look retarded.
