I eventually swapped out my OE wheel carriers for the -0.5deg version, which significantly reduce the clearance between the wheel/tire and strut, and even with those hubs, I ran just a 3mm spacer with no clearance issues.
Good intel!

I also went back and rechecked my notes... I was fitment testing with a fairly chunky 255/40 tire which drove my concern for strut clearance.
