Default Stock 98-00 wheels, can i use spacers?

I have a 95 LS with 98-00 wheels, 245/50/16 Falken tires. I love the setup but would really like to add spacers to "push out" the wheels to the corners a little bit. Do you know where i can purchase some spacers preferably online? And what size in millimeters would be an ok size to use so that the lugs are still holding the wheel firmly?

15-25mm spacers will get you there if you decide on 25 look for adapters.

You cannot use any spacer that has studs built into it like the kics if you go 15mm or less.
You have to be atleast 25mm to use them other wise you are replacing studs to extended ones. OEM wheels have no space for the studs so they push against the hub.

Oh yah they fit fine i had spacers on all of mine.
