FD wheels on FC question (Yes, I searched)

Well Ive decided to put a set of FD wheels on my FC, and I know that I'll need spacers, but I have a question. What size spacers, and where can I get them?? Also, I think that it was said that I'd only need spacers for the front, but wouldnt it be best to get all 4, so the wheels are spaced the same, front and back??? But most importantly I just want to know what size spacers, and where I can order a set. Thanks.

This has been answered many times, so you can't have searched very well !

I currently have FD rims on my FC. I have H&R 25mm spacers on all 4 hubs. I got them from The Tire Rack.

I initially had 225/50ZR16's all around, but the front tire sidewall would rub the fender and slice the tire. This may not happen if you use a VR rated tire or if you do not have lowering springs (my eibach springs lower the car about .8in)

I eventually replaced the fronts with 205/55ZR16's.... working out great for me.
