Default Spacer Suggestion por favor

Hi, I search around (in the spacer sticky & such) and could not find the right answer that fits my need.

Current status: 03 Track model slammed & tucked (in about 1 inch)

I measured from the top of the rear wheel sidewall to the fender -open space is about 7/8 in (22.225 mm).
The front wheels has about an inch (25mm) open space from the side wall to the fender.

I want to play it safe with NO rubbing -what do you guys recommend? 15mm? 20mm?

I am running stock track wheels with spacers:
20mm front
30mm rear

I was running 25mm front but they rubbed slightly at the height I was at.
No rubbing at all with the 20mm fronts.

My rear fenders are rolled. They might rub if they weren't

20 front and 25 rear seem to work well.

I use 25mm with the 275/40 rear tire. I got my rear fenders rolled to about 45 degrees. Only rubbing with I go over drastically uneven road. Im also dropped 1.5"s in the rear.

If your using stock suspension and/or springs you could go 30mm all around without rubbing issues.
