What spacer needed for a 32mm offset?

Found a sweet deal on some OZ wheels and tires, I know the 5x120 will fit our 5x120.65, but I'm wondering what spacers I need to get a 32mm offset to fit.

you'd probably want to end up with a +0 to a -10 offset. so something like a 35mm-40mm adapter. to make it easy I'd say a 1.5" adapter which translates to 38.1mm.

so 1.5" all around? Or is it different for fronts and rears?

no aftermarket brakes, I just want to have my wheels function and look correct.
looks like these are the way to go, no?
