What size of spacer do I need ? 18x8 ET45

Hi, I have a 2016 Golf 1.8T and I just bought some new wheels and I wanted to get 18x8.5 ET35 to get a flush fitment but the wheels I wanted only came in 18x8 ET45 so I know I'm gonna need spacers but I have no idea what size (front and rear) I need? Thanks a lot !

A 15 mm spacer would get you to the wheel specs you’re looking for.

Front and rear ?

Front and rear ?

I'm saying if you wanted an 18x8.5 +35 but you got an 18x8 +45, the wheel you actually got would be about 16mm inset from the wheel you wanted, so a 15mm spacer would be the closest to get to the wheel you want.

I don't know what you'd need front vs rear but generally the rears are spaced +5mm out more (e.g. the flush kits are generally 15mm front 20mm rear for example).
