I had 20mm spacers on the rear with 16" nimrods with 195/40/16 tyres. It was lowered so the tyres JUST about sat in the arch and is JUST about scraped when going over a bump or cornering fast.
So depenind on how low your suspension is what tyres and wheel sizes you have, 15mm should be fine
You can also get the rear arches 'rolled' or even do a DIY job if you're up for it
