Folks I bought new wheels and there 7.5 wide.
I would like wheels to come out a bit more I was thinking 25mm spacers what do I need ? Thanks.
 
Buy hubcentric and from a well known manufacturer. You will need extended bolts (normally come with the set). Don't buy cheap.

Here's my vid on the ones I bought:

Got some Black, Bimecc 15mm or 10mm Hubcentric spacers with Black bolts, if your interested, £25 a pair plus a fiver for postage. Are they aftermarket wheels or O.E. because the bolts are different.

Hello SmartAMG, have you still got these spacers for sale?
 
I guess 25mm wheel spacers work, and here are some tips: buy high-quality forged AL7075T6 hub-centric wheel spacers!
bcz Hub centric wheel spacers create the wheel-to-axle connection, acting as a role of transferring studs/bolts loads to the hub, eliminate the high-speed vibration by filling the gap between the aftermarket wheel and the axle hub. and Forged wheel spacers are stronger than casting wheel spacers, though most wheel spacers you can buy online are casting wheel spacers, for long-lasting product and safety, forged wheel spacers are always your best choice.
 
I would make the point (as an Engineer) that adding wheel spacers increases the load upon, and therefore reduces the life of, the wheel bearings.

So long as you're happy to sacrifice bearing life for cosmetics that's fine, but adding spacers doesn't come for free.
