If you finish a ride and your chainstay has no paint left, your tyres were too wide for the clearance offered. ;)
5mm sounds good. Mine were 2mm with 35s and that looked way too close if I was to ride anything slightly muddy. But if you're definitely riding muddy then 5mm is probably too close too.
