What size wheels spacers?

I have an 06 330i that im trying to make look more aggressive. I dont want to buy new wheels yet. Right now I have black beyern mesh wheels with a 30 offset all the way around. What size spacers should I get for front and back to make the wheels flush with the fenders?

Thanks

What width are you running on those mesh? That's a fairly aggressive offset depending on the size and width so I am not sure you would be able to run spacers.

They are 18x8.5 Front and 18x9.5 rear. I was thinking a 10mm spacer in front and 15mm in rear. I just dont want it to stick past the fenders at all.

Don't put anything on the front. I have the Beyern 5 in 19x8.5 ET30 with 235/35/19 for the front and they're perfect. I previously had the same tires on Weds Bavaria in the same size and for whatever reason the fronts stuck out of the fender ever so slightly towards the bumper even though the offset and width were the same.

With those widths and offsets, I would not recommend running a spacer. Anything more and you risk rubbing the fenders. Are the wheels not flush already?
