A 10mm is the smallest spacer with a hub on it to prevent the issue, but you may poke out a bit up front. I decided against it on my 2014, but would love to see how it looks on yours if you get them set up.
That's a real bummer, is there a picture of those fronts with a 10mm spacers somewhere?
Can't find one.
I don't want the wheels to stick out of the car
I couldn't find any anywhere, that's why I decided to pass on them. But it may be possible, 5mm more than the flush 5mm spacer which isn't huge.
