Wheel spacer

I just bought a 1986 turbo, and I want to put a wheel spacer to widen the track mostly for looks only to fill up the wheel well.

Could someone give me an idea of what spacers to use as well as a good width?
Appreciate if photos are posted if you have spacers on your car currently.
Thanks......

Front or rear or both? What size wheels/tires? Do you have the stock 28mm rear spacers now? Do you have any extra stud length?

If the wheels are not stock, you will probably have to figure out on your own which spacers will work best.

I have stock Fuchs. I would like to add width to both front and rear.

Thanks

You could probably add a 1/4" spacer without much problem but after that you'd probably need longer studs.
