How wide depends on your tires sizes, ride height and the look you're going for. I wouldn't bother getting custom spacers made since the H&R's are readily available but if you insisted, maybe go with 35mm spacers all around to give it a bit more aggressive look. Or if they didn't have to match, do a pair of 35mm and another in 40mm, that way you can try them front/rear and see what you're preferred look is.

19x8.5 et 21 (w/35mm spacer)
19x8.5 et 16 (w/40mm spacer)

19x11 et 16 (w/35mm spacer)
19x11 et 11 (w/40mm spacer)
I just spoke to Porsche dealership in Brisbane who told me to buy brand new the Rims would be $3,800 AUD EACH!!! hahahah so pleeeeez tell me where I could find these for $800!!!
