Default Wheel Spacers: Source: 2018 SQ5

What is a good source for wheel spacers? I see ECS is out of stock on many sizes for a couple months.

I'm also interested for the Q5. I imagine things will be the same if not similar?

the factory wheels have pretty aggressive offsets already. how much extra offset do you plan to add?

@2PUTT
Was thinking 8mm/15mm; front/rear. This is a little less than flush according to my measurements. 10mm/17.5mm would flush them out plus a tiny bit; + ~0.125"
I did switch over to 265/40-21 A/S tires so there is a little more tire width.

Any thoughts or opinions on this?

Anyone have pics with their spacer setups? Trying to gather some pics to decide on what size I want to use. I’ve seen 15/20 and looks spot on with stock 20s on 255. Pretty sure oem 20 wheels are 20x8 +39 offset?

I went 10/15. Pictures don’t really show well IMO with this mild shift. Done again I would go 15/20. 10/15 is very subtle.
