Need your opinion on what size of wheel spacer

Hey guys. Last summer i was unable to put my Volk wheel caps on my new Volk wheels which pissed the crap out of me. The specs on my wheels are 18x7.5 with offset +48. My tire on them is the toyo t1r 235/40/18. I am pretty sure those are the sizes. They are sitting in storage right now. What size wheel spacers do you guys recommend? When i have the wheels on they sit very far from the fender and i dont know what wheel spacer to get. I am willing to get 20, 25, 30 in the back and whatever in the front. I am just not sure what size and with that offset of 48 that i have what would look best. I am on coilovers so i can adjust if there is any rubbing. I want them out as far as possible close to the fender maybe even sticking out. Shoot me your ideas. Thanks!

When you put your volks on, just measure from the outside most edge of the tire to the inner edge of the fender. Measure in mm's and there your answer. If you roll in your fenders you can even go with a bigger spacer, but thats as far as I would go. Tires sticking out past the fender doesn't look right and has the possibility of rubbing during hard turns and big bumps.
