as the original 6" wide wheels are ET19 you'd probably get away with none but the centre bore is too small.

centre bore is the hole in the centre of the wheel that sits on the hub

an ET25 would need a spacer 7-10mm to achieve an ideal 15-18mm offset

too small a bore would need the wheel machining out or a hubcentric spacer but you'd need to space past the hub so looking at 25mm+

i'd use hub-centric myself all you have to check is that the spacer sits on the hub with no up/down or sid/side movement and the same when fitted to the wheel, that way all the bolts are doing is tightening the wheel on if there is a loose fit when you hit a pot hole you risk breaking a bolt, i have only seen this once and that was on a BMW Z3 the guy had bad fitting 25mm spacers and a 9" width wheel and imo the threads were too short but i got a trip to Dover with his car on the back of my lorry Smile
