To make the wheels flush with the fenders

5mm fronts, 15mm rears; btw I'm running 245 all around right now.

And you said the 5mm spacers were causing rubbing issues up front? I'm running 245/35/19's up front and I'm debating between 3mm or 5mm spacers because the tires tuck way in (neg. camber) on the fronts after being lowered with my Renntech ELM...

mark, the size of the spacer will depend on the current offset of the wheels.

Just because MPRESIVE ( your car looks great btw) is using a 5mm and 15mm that doesn't necessarily mean that you can do the same on your setup. I have both 3mm, 5mm, and 8mm in stock so swing by.

Probably, I'm going to take those front spacers this weekend and see if still rubbing or not...
