Spacers for 17 inch Enkie RPF1?

Hi guys, I have an 06 R53 that currently sits at stock ride height. Planning on dropping the car a bit (did this in past on coilovers but blew a damper so went back to stock setup). I’m not exactly sure what the offset of the wheels (Enkie RPF1s) is as I write this but what I do know is things sit too far inboard. Need suggestions on what size spacers in mm (and brand) to go F/R and interested to know if new lugs would be required. Running continentals in 215s if that matters. Pix of your setup if you have any would be a great help. Thanks

Would think the type of coilover and where the perch is related to the the top of the tire is the biggest issue.
