Did my reading on the same topic a few weeks back
and here is the verdict. If you do track days dont add any. If you are upgrading front brakes and have a clearance issue, and you do track days, get the minimum that u can to clear the brakes (5-8mm). The wear and tear on the bearings under load is too much with spacers.
If you just want the look, which is what I wanted, then 15 and 20 (which is what I got) is good. Kinda wondering if I should have gone with 10 in the front, the rear looks fine though. I am using them on stock 6 spoke rims. Pics to follow on the weekend most likely.
Good luck.
