Spacers (help) Style 199 Rims

I was just requesting some help on spacers as I don't know much about them...

I just recently picked up Style 199 Rims and wanted to make the wheels lit real flush right along the fender...

I'm running the tires that matsarge had on them... which are 225f, 265r's

What sized spacers do i need to get to let the wheels sit perfectly aligned with the fender? 5mm? 12mm?

Also, what do I need to look out for when buying these things? Any dangers?

The fronts are 235's not 225's.

I just bought bigger tires for the M so it will look slightly different tomorrow. I'm going to run 245/35's in front and 275/30's in back. It's going to look nice.
