Default spacer question

I have stock 19 inch rim and tires and lowered with 1.5 (f)/1.3 (r) inches.
In this case, what spacers should I go with if I don't want to rub my fender?
I measured with my ruler and 10mm/15mm will put it in a danger situation, or I may be wrong.
I'm open to any opinions! Thanks!

I would suggest 20mm all around or 15mm in the front and 20mm in the rear

I am worried about 15mm spacer because vendors advertise that type 1 or something will not fit with stock wheels.
that's why I am leaning toward 20mm all around, but I don't want to rub my fender.

I guess if my car does that, I should just drop my car like 1.3/1.1

It shouldn't rub on 20's
I used to run 20's all around with Ichiba V2 and had no issues.

You ran V2 (bolt ons) on the front and they fit? Why is everywhere saying they won't?
