20mm spacer on the front too much?

Ok, I really need to push out my front wheels. They are 19x8.5 +40 running a 235 tire. I was thinking a 20mm. Anyone know if that will be way too much, if so maybe ill just stick with a 15mm. Any thoughts or help?

Thanks

I wouldn't do more than 10mm, making it ET30.

20mm would be aggressive for that setup, even with a less bulky sidewall. Have you measured? What suspension are you running?

I measured it and think I will have to stick with a 10mm. Thanks for the help guys!
