28mm

Before

After


Not great pics but you get the idea! Thought 28mm maybe to much but they look great!
Only problem I have the tyres hitting the arches around corners at speed!
Going to turn them down to 20mm to hopefully stop this

Unless you get spacers that include their own studs i would fit longer studs on anything more than about 5mm

Don't buy just spacers, if you do only go upto about 5mm
Hub centric spacers are deffiently the better option
