It is up to you how thick of wheel spacers you want. 1/4in to 2-3in. Ebay for cheep ones, but be careful they are not quality made.

what brand did you get? and where from? Quality is a priority for me on this issue since I'm going to be using the same gen2 wheels, and I would rather them not fail while driving. I'm also getting new wheel studs all around that are 1/4 or 1/2 longer to accomdate on spacers.

I want just enough so it don't hit the bolt and quality is my priority as well
