The spacer width depends on your wheel and tire setup. If your wheels and tires are stock specs, 10mm in the front and 15mm in the rear is a popular option. You'll also need extended lug bolts (unless you're doing / have done the wheel stud conversion). I have 10mm front and 15mm rear spacers on stock wheels and they sit flush with the fenders. I recently did the wheel stud conversion and am selling the extended lugs if you're in need of some.

No rubbing at all, not a single time. My car has the M-Sport suspension and hasn't been lowered.

If you go with a more aggressive setup and run into rubbing issues, you could roll your fenders. Here is an example: |

plumb a straight edge from the fenderlip and measure the distance to the part of the tire you want it to be flush with. that distance will be the spacer thickness you require. |
