most seem to say 12-15mm is plenty

if you take the springs out so you can move the susp thru its full travel, with out it hitting anything. Then there shouldnt be an issue.
As bogged said most seem to do 12-15mm.

Check how much thread you have left at the chassis end of the radius arm with the 20mm spacers. I could only fit 15mm spacers before I ran out of thread but they are not standard arms.

I could only fit 11mm spacers safely to my standard arms before running out of thread.

looks like i'll have to take the nut and bush off and do some measurements then.
