Spacers 15MM or 20MM

I am trying to decide if I need the 15mm or 20mm. Any recommendations anyone? I've searched, but the offsets are different for every wheel. And I can't seem to find the answer I am looking for. From the look of the picture below, what size do you think I need for the Axis Penta wheels? They're front 8.5 and rear 9.5. I am trying to work something out with Tonystarks79.

15 if you want it to be flush, 20 if you want it to be aggressive.

I have an 04 coupe with brembo brakes. Would 15mm spacers help my wheels be flush? Where do you get them, and how much are they usually?

So for my offset, 8.5 x 9.5 , tire: F275/40/19, R275/35/19. 15mm should do just fine? Just wanted to reinsure before I buy. Thanks for your help.

I'm pretty sure your offsets are +35 all around or +35F/+45R, but it looks more like +35 all around from the picture. I'd go with +20mm spacers front and rear.

You're only gonna get a bunch of mixed opinions until you let us know your exact offset the wheels are.

Hey guys this is my set up..275/30/19x9.5 +25 in the rear 245/35/19x8.5 +29 in the front...I ordered a 15mm spacer but debating to go more for the aggressive look..Do you think 20mm would work without having to roll any fenders?

^ Are you the original poster under a different sn?

If those sizes are what is pictured above, I would go with 20mm spacer in front, and 15mm spacer in the rear.

I see... the pic above looks really tucked, I wonder what his offset is.
