Default 2003 wheels spacers question

hi all i have a 2003 blobeye wrx, it has prodrive wheels with ET56 and i was looking at fitting some wheel spacers so that the wheels fit the arches nicely, i considerd changing the wheels for ones with a greater offset but like these wheels alot.
my options seems to be around 16mm or 20mm, i dont want to buy the wrong ones and have wasted money. has any one got any pics of there cars with spacers on them?
or opinions on what i should do?
oh the wheels are 18" and it has been lowered on tein 30/35mm springs

thanks

If you put 20mm spacers on your nuts will not have enough thread on the studs. And I dons think that is safe but I may be wrong.
You can get new longer studs but it is only werth changing if your bearings have gone, but again I could be wrong
