Assuming you don't change your camber, i doubt you'll get more than 5mm. 10mm spacer will be close.

You can get the universal 5mm spacers, which work with stock bolts.

any sort of spacers you put on, I'd get the kit that comes with extended studs or built in studs. It's dangerous to reuse stock studs with spacers.

Here is an idea of what 10mm spacers in the rear looks like on Coupe 19s and 245/40 tires. My camber in these pics was ~1.4 or so IIRC. Fenders rolled very flat.

10mm spacers - rear

For the fronts, if you are running 245/40 you'll only be able to run a 5mm, with a 10mm I rubbed like crazy.
