+1 on the 20mm front 25mm rear
It should be pretty flush with those spacers without rubbing issues

Oh ok.. i'm dropped on S-techs... so you would want the set up i just described... I too am going to get spacers in those settings... hopefully I can find some H&R spacers in those specs.. if not then i'll think about kics or ichiba...
Granted that this is taken on a hill driveway.. you can kind of see the slight gap towards the rear wheel.. which is where you'd want the 25mm to be.

Use a ruler. And you'll probably have to roll the fenders, just to be safe.

NO!, the rim doesn't have a lip on the edge, it'll look weird. paint them black or gun metal.
my stockers back in the day:
