i'd say 25mm.

And make sure you get hub centric spacers.


i also have 18x 8.5 and i'm planning on running 25mm

For sure you need your rim offsets before you can make a decision on spacer size.

wheel offset calculator

use this and become best friends with it.

need to know your alignment specs. how low your car is(wheels naturally camber in and tuck the lower you go).

picks of your car would be helpful too.

25mm sounds about right though. my wheels are 10+22. 8+25(-25mm spacer) effectively 8+0 will be only 3mm less then mine. mine is not super flush but definitely looks good.
