SSR SP1 Profs and wheel spacers...

I have 19" SSR SP1 Professors on my 04 6MT coupe, I just ordered my new tires (245/35f and 285/35r) and I am thinking about adding some wheel spacers. I currently have a 5mm in the front to clear the Brembos, but it looks like it needs to come out more. I want it to look more flush and stick out a bit in the front and the back. Anyone running a similar setup with spacers? I want to know how big spacers I should get and also if I need new studs for any higher than 5mm. I searched the forum and found info, but it was mainly with stock 19 inch wheels. Anyone running something similar to me with or without pics? Id really like to bring out the front, because it doesnt look flush. The back looks good, but i wouldnt mind a bit more.

Thank u guys.

The widths should be 8.5 and 10...truthfully I ordered these from TireRack over a year and half ago....not too sure on the offset...anyway i can check?
It wasnt a custom order..it was the set for the g35 that tire rack carried at the time.

The width and offset should be on a sticker on the inside of the wheels

Are you sure its +38? According to the spec sheets, sp1's didn't come in +38, only +37. That being said, I installed a 25mm spacer in the rear and rolled my fenders, and ended up at +5. You could do the same and end up with the same outer position since both wheels have the same sized outer barrel

Yea the offsets are 37, i finally got a chance to go to the shop and look at them. I wouldnt mind rolling the fenders if it would make that much of a difference. What do you guys suggest for the front and back as far as wheel spacers go. Thank u guys for the help.

whats the front offset? I'm running a 8.5+20, but I'm going to be putting a 15mm spacer on the front so I'll be running 8.5+5 9.5+5, a 25mm spacer should be fine for the rear for a flush wheel, but you'll have to roll the rear fenders
