Smile Hub Centric Spacer Recommendations

I have decided to just get spacers until I can afford fully custom wheels. I have about 25mm of room, and I want to go with hub centric since they have less chance of failure. Any recommendations for spacers that will fit and be reliable?

By the way, From this article Top 5 Best Brand Tires in 2017 Reviews

It's my first time to know hex auto parts ,have you heard it before ? Is it good hex auto wheel spacers? Any feedback or reviews ?

Thanks

Default wheel spacers

No,never heard it.
Last weekend,I bought a set (4) of 8
Lug Wheel Spacers Lug Wheel Spacers
from my local repair shop ,they quoted me $180.00 then installed on my car.
I have no vibrations, or alignment issues.So far so good.
Maybe it's a little more expensive than shipping online.
But I could sleep easier.

I ran a $200 set of Spidertrax on my 2006 2wd Tacoma all the way around, and I have a $35 pair of eBay spacers on the rear of my 4x4 Blazer. Both have served me well and have never given me issues...

What do spacers do for you? Do they help with tire clearance?

In both of my cases, it was purely for aesthetics... Widened the overall track with of the Tacoma, and with the Blazer just made the rear track width match the front since GM decided to put rear ends on the 4x4's that are narrower than the front track width for whatever reason...
