i'm using 20mm breyton spacers on the rear wheels
the rear wheel is actually 20x10 et 30,
using 20mm spacer makes rear offset become 10mm
that is the max i think, because somehow the wheels are not poking out
still a little bit inside the fender.. it is just right..
and completely change the way it looks
running a non sport suspension and no rubbing issues

Nice.my 20's never rubbed even though i have the car lowered but they rub now since i changed the falken tires with yokohamas in the rear..but i'm gonna get the fender rolled & get spacers, i think! the front definitley needs spacers since i got the M Front bumper with the front lip, they look like bicycle tires for some reason..lol

I just purchased 5mm and 15mm H&R's to mount with my new 124's. Hope it looks great!

Usually it's printed/molded on the backside of spokes.

Edit: Like this.
