look in the black market secion under vendor stuff for sale. There is a vendor on this site that sells those. I got quoted 134$ for a pair of 15mm spacers but I am in canada so i get ripped off. For you will be much cheaper then that.
I am looking to space out my stock wheels too and I think 15mm will make my wheels flush with the fender. there are no pictures of this set up so I can't tell for sure

if you are not lowered, you wont have any problems. And by FLUSHED, I mean, wheels are not sunken in, or poking out of the fender. They are just flushed with the fender.

Spacers just push your wheel out, it has nothing to do with your tires.

b2autodesigns, PM this guy, he is a vendor here and ask him what the right spacer is for you. someone told me that 15mm is flushed with the fender. Then go 20-25 mm if you really want that much poke. But that would look kind of ugly IMHO
