25mm. You can either get bolt on spacers, or spacers that require you replace the factory studs with elongated ones. You'll have to pay someone to install the studs if you dont know how to do it yourself, so they end up being more expensive and more permanent.

No. Project Kics, H&R and Ichiba are spacers with built in studs to look at. If the spacer's hubcentric ring isn't part of the actual spacer, get the hubcentric ring also. (hub bore is 66.10)

Don't cheap out with spacers. I've seen people snap wheel studs and lose wheels with cheapo spacers.
