Your stock sport wheels are 19x9+47 & 10+30’s,,,the hub centric bolt on spacers come with studs & nuts to hold them on.
25mm all around would be pretty close.

Here’s a picture; unsure what their Black Friday prices are.

I got different Wheels/ you may want to go 20mm to be on safer side....you shouldn’t have any problems with tire rub or poke:as long as you have stock suspension & alignment.
Park on level ground & tape a plumb weight to fenders @ center of each wheel & measure the gap between string & tire sidewall or string & wheel lip.
It’s simple to calculate.

Here's what mine looked like with stock sport rays, 20mm bolt on spacers (4 corners) and lowered 1". No rubbing at all.

20 front and 20 back is a common set up. 15 15 looks more conservative though. Just an opinion.

20/20 is probably what you're after. I am running generic bolt-on hubcentric spacers and have found them to be just as good as expensive brand name spacers I have had in the past, but at less than 50% the price. Just make sure it's a good grade of aluminum and studs.

Z measured 26 mm at the rear, 23 mm at the front I may buy me a pair of 20s for the front and a pair of 25s for the back. If anyone can see why this may not be a good idea, please speak up...


My other car measured 20mm both front and rear. Pictures are below (please no judging...)
