Front and rear spacers with my wheels
I currently sit at stock height and would like to keep it this way for now. My wheels are 15x6.5 with either a 38 or 40 offset. I wanted the 10mm (could I get away with the 13mm?) penguin spacers for the rear and was wondering what kind and size (thickest without rubbing issues) of spacer I would need for the front? Also would adding some washers to the bottom mounting bolt give me some rear camber? Im only looking to get another degree or so in the rear.

Not many folks here that have done what you are asking at stock height.

Yea. Trial and Error technique is probably your best bet. All I can say is make sure you get some extended lug nuts while your add it to be safe

First off, a question. What size tire are you running? 185, 195, 205?
Personally, I wouldn't bother with spacers up front and just go with 10mm in the back to push the wheels outward more to line up with the track of the fronts. At stock height, when I was running 16x7 with 195/50 tires, offset +32, I would rub under heavy passenger/cargo load on the rear passenger side. I inserted one 1/2 bolt diameter washer on each of the lower rear hub bolts to realize enough camber to eliminate that issue. With the offset you are stating, I don't see any need to introduce camber to the rear.
