19x8.5 all around, do I need 5mm spacers?

Title says it all. I have 535i xdrive. Want to upgrade to 19's. Since I read 19x8.5 is the best dims for front should i add 5mm spacers on all 4 to get the wheels out just little bit more?
Thanks for help!

It depends on the wheel's offset

Then just get the rims and once you put them on, you'll know what size spacers you'll need
