Depends on the offset.

Why don't you put on the rims, measure the gap between wheel and fender, do some calculations and VOILA.

Much better than us here throwing you random numbers.

Go 30mm.

what kind of wheels? i presume 17x7 45mm offset? if so, maybe a 20mm spacer can do

I think 15mm would be fine for the front. You might want to get a 20mm or something for the rear since the rear sticks inwards more than the front.

And what you do with the lugs depends on what kind of spacers you get.

If you get ones like the Ichiba version 2, you just bolt the spacers onto the stock lugs, and then bolt the wheels to the lugs that are attached to the version 2 spacers.

If you get ones like the Ichiba version 1, you have to remove the stock lugs and install the extended ones. Then you place the spacers between the rims and the hubs.

not a massive fan of large then 5mm spacers. can weaken the studs/hub/axle. try to get wheels with the right offset and fitment instead
