Default spacer question what size?

I know what fits and what doesn't fit on our cars now in terms of offsets and widths but spacers always confuse me.

Been thinking about buying 15mm spacers for the front right now they are 18x8.5 20+offset with 225/40's and they are a bit sunken in.

are those spacers going to get me a little more than flush up front?



thinking about 10mm in the rear also but i know how that'll look.

Yes, those spacers will push your wheels further out. You will have an effective offset of +5.

FRONT: 25-30mm
REAR: 10-15MM

This all depends on if you plan on going lower.

As you know the car will naturally camber in the lower it gets creating a bigger gap
