Default what size spacers???

i currently am running the 3gs 18" rims on 245/40/r18 tires.. did some research and saw they have a 45mm offset... i dropped the car on megan coils and the rims look sunken in the wheels well.. i wanted to flush them out as close to the fender without having to the pull the fender.. what size spacers should i run to do this, i was thinking 25mm in the rear and 20mm in the front but i could be wrong... also gonna be running 4.25 camber in the rear and 3.25 in the front... any help is appreciated and if anyone has pics even better.... if there is a thread on this already please send me a link, i couldn't find one..
THANKS...

if they are 8" wide you will be safe to get 25 fronts and 30 rears.

measured the gap today.... i could prob fit a 38mm spacer in the rear, almost a 2 inch gap..... the 25mm will be perfect for the front, 1 inch gap in the front.... wanted to get the fatlace spacers but the biggest they got is 25mm don't wanna do 2 different brand spacers.....
