you can only go so big on spacers without getting longer wheel studs btw. 15-20 looks about right. New wheels?

Judging from the first photo, I'd say 20mm spacers. You should post a few more photos from a few different angles and a bit closer so we can make more sound recommendations.

Also, are you looking to keep your current tires or want to go narrower to get the wheels more "flush"?

depends what you consider being "flush"....and if you running stretch tires.

generally, park on a level flat surface....then you get a plumb line....hold it at the edge of your fenders...then measure the distance between your upper wheel lip to the plumb line.
