Am I using the spacer calculator correctly?

I know there have been a lot of spacer questions lately but I'm a noob and wanted to be sure I order the right spacers.

My rims are 17X7, ET38. The calculator says I need a 35mm spacer in front and a 41mm in the rear. The biggest spacers I've seen are 25mm. Do I need to go with 25mm spacers all around or is there another option?
Thanks

I had rims with those exact specs. I ran 15mm in Front and

25mm in Back. Definitely more aggresive than stock but not as flush with fender as the car used as reference for the calculator. I think it looked good. I'll send you pictures tonight if you want.

I actually still have the spacers, I haven't had a chance to post for sale yet. I just put them on a month ago, then decided to get new wheels.

15mm H+R DR w/ longer lug bolts
25 H+R mm DRA

Let me know if your interested.
