Default Wheel Spacers?

I want to put wheel spacers on the car. But I'm not sure what size would be recommended in this case? The 5mm sounds interesting. They don't have to be stupid wide, but I still wanna add more stability to the car for handling. I know I also have to get longer bolts for the wheels and all too. And I've heard they may wear out some of the parts on the suspension itself. But what do you guys prefer? And yes they're on the stock Bridgestones.

I don't sell anything but if you want the car to still be hubcentric I believe 5mm would be the widest.

5mm spacers will make approximately zero difference in stability/handling.

2x5mm = 10mm = .394"
Track ~60"
.394"/60" = 0.00656

Less than 1% increase in track width.
