Default Wheel Spacers

I would like to put spacers on my car to fill out the wheel wells better but I'm not sure what sizes I need. I have a 02 C4S with stock turbo wheels. I'm pretty sure someone in rennlist has done this already to their car. Help would be appreciated.

Yes, 6mm all the way around. Then in the winter when I put my 17" snow tires on I leave the 6mm's on the front and put 25mm on the rear for the smaller tires.

I bought a set thet were not hub centric. 10mm and 6mm; they vibrate and were unsafe. I sent them to someone on the board so he could mount and get an idea if they would work. If you put out a post maybe he could send them to you so you could do the same. They are for testing only, not safe to drive with.
