Question Help With Spacers Selection!!!!!!!!!

I have a huge issue here....I have a Grand Touring 06, which comes with Factory Brembos, I just got my rims last week Front 19x8.5, Rear 19x9.5 running on Falken 452 Front 245/35/19, Rear 275/35/19. This is when the problem starts...
The front rims touches the caliper so I just run to any shop and bought a cheap spacers for emergency, those that comes with both 4 or 5 lug 3mm exactly....well my car handling SUCKS , vibration at 60,then at 80, my tires are balance and I did the alignment......I know I need Hubcentric Wheel Spacers, HOWEVER there are huge..like 15mm and up and I don't need them for the look.
What you guys recommend for the spacer and where can I get them. I need two for the front. I will go for anything less than 5mm.

THANKS

depends on what look you want. I personally would get a 10mm front spacer for a +35mm 8.5 front. That will look much more aggressive but it wont be extreme, still will be pretty conservative, but not extremely sunk in.

Its all personal preference when it comes to offset. If you are just looking to clear the BBK then any spacer should work fine.
