Speaker spacer ring depth advice for classic

Going to attempt to put the front speakers i have into my 97 classic myself as i got quoted £120

from my local car audio shop to do just that.
I have a pair of 13cm pioneers to go in and need to get spacers.
There are 3 sizes of 13cm MDF spacers on ebay.
9mm
12mm
18mm
My speaker depth is about 52mm.

Anyone any idea what size would be best?

Cheers

Andy

the speakers come with a grill right?? take the mesh out, turn the plastic grill housing round, Vwalla.. you have a spacer with pre- cut holes!!

sall i did, no extra cost for spacers!
