I have used Project Kics WT and Ichiba v1 spacers. They are both great brands and you can't go wrong with them. Project Kics are a little more expensive and does not include hub centric rings. While Ichiba v2 have a built in center bore.

Check your wheels for open slots or cavities if you are going to use Ichiba v2 spacers or Kics WT. Though you may be able to pass if you go with a big enough spacer since OEM studs are short from the start. The wheel just needs to be flushed against the spacer.

These are the specs you need:Bolt Pattern: 5 x 114.3Center Bore: 66.2Thread: 12x1.25

I can't recommend on how much space as I don't know what your goal is other than pushing it out more. But how much more? Describe what your looking for so NICO members can help you out!

Honestly im not looking for anything to crazy dont want my tires poppin out....went to a rim shop just now i they recommended i didnt use it told me 10mm spacers are thick and if i put those on my tires would be poking out. Just want it to as close to the fenders without having to roll them. Dont really want to change my stock rims because im planning to get them powder coated but the back rim to come out a little.

10mm spacers shouldn't be too thick. stock rims are +45 offset, I'm on +33 offset G35 rims which sit really flush with the fender, but do not stick out past the fender for sure. I'm also on wider rims, stock rims are 7" and I'm on 8.5" rims.

If you want to figure out how thick of a spacer you can use, just measure the gap between the edge of the fender and your rim, as long as the spacer isn't thicker than that then you should be A-OK.
