Default What wheel spacer size?

I had 17x8 17x9+45 for my previous set of wheels but now I'm going back to stock. Since I rolled my front/rear fenders I'm going to have a lot of wheel space so I definitely need some spacers.

What size would get me close to that, if not a tad more aggressive? I still had a little bit of room in the rear when running that setup with 245s.

I've also read on this forum that a few guys run ebay wheels spacers...
can anybody else vouch for them?

Thanks.

Why not go with a bigger tire? You should be able to go to a 255 or 265 rear. Just a thought.

25mm. Since you are running stock wheels, get a hubcentric spacer.

Hubcentric spacers.

I used some on a CLK Benz. Worked great.

So 25mm for fronts and rears?

No opinions on ebay spacers like these?

I'm going to be on AP2 v2s.

I think I've seen that thread on wheel spacers that you're talking about.

My fenders are rolled and I have a good bit of neg camber so I want to make sure my wheels don't look sunk.

I still need recommendations on wheel spacers though.

That's what I'm thinking.
