Default Good Spacers to use with stock 17's?

Well I searched for about a half an hour to see if i could find any info on my own but everyone is running aftermarket wheels, so i decided to give up and ask. Is anyone out there running stock 17's with spacers? If so what are the biggest spacers i can run on these wheels. If you have Pics of your wheels with spacers to attach then please do.

Project Kics 20mm all the way around. With Kics, you do not need to remove the lugs.

the 17's have higher offsets and thus are more sunken than the anniversery 18's though, so 25mm all around would be a better size

powdercoating + spacers = might as well spent that money on aftermarket.

but whatever floats your boat.

from what ive read 20mm front and 25mm rear. ichiba has some good ones at very reasonable prices. check the vendor section under wheels.

.

I was going to go with aftermarket wheels, but from what i've found the aftermarket wheels that i'm interested in, that are in my budget are all extremely heavy and will make my car noticeably slower. If i could afford a set of volks i definately would, but i just don't see myself spending that much money on wheels. I'm more of a performance kind of guy. And i got a deal on the powdercoating a buddy of mine works at a shop. ($100 for all four wheels while he was off the clock). I couldn't pass it up.

But thanks for the info on the spacers i think i am going to go with the ichiba's i've heard a lot of good things about them.
