Default Is the rear track narrower?

This has been bugging me since I got my 850. Is the track on the rear wheels narrower than the front by a large margin or do the quarter panels come out wide? Spacers are on my list to satisfy my OCD. Thinking 20mm.

15mm will put you right at the inner lip. 20mm will rub.
