I can't really tell from the pics but...
I've got a 1.5 finger gap in F and 1 finger gap in R, with 25mm spacers all around
and no rubbing probs.
I really think you'll want to go with a wider spacer up front though.
I used to have 15mm and it still looked too tucked for me.
But then again it depends on whether you're going to be running any camber/toe kit up front.
That can change the look slightly too.

With S-techs, I don't think you will rub.
I have OEM 19's, 20mm front/25mm rear spacers, and am dropped on HKS coilovers to the point where I'm tire tucking all 4 corners...
The rears used to rub where the rear fender met the rear bumper... but not anymore.
The fronts rub if I turn the wheel too far when I'm going up an incline, like into a driveway.

Are your rear fenders rolled?

i would also suggest going 25 all around possibly 30mm in the back if you really feel tight haha but i went 25mm all around on OEM 19's will stock tire height and dropped on some coilovers.
i wish my camera was working i would shot more pictures for you but gl on the decision. again 25mm all around!
this was before i got my alignment so looks tucked alittle and in the pictures earlier i raise it up another .75" inch or so. Getting that alignment did wondering in the look and will save my tires
