Thoughts on spacers for dual purpose 135i

Thinking about BMS or Stance Tek wheel spacers for 2011 135i.

Ive reduced my camber to -3.2* in the front, and -1.8* in the rear.

Im using Ground Control Street camber plates in the front, M3 front control arms. Im still on stock sport suspension.

I have stock front wheels Style 261 with larger tire than OEM (225/40R18 versus 215/40R18).

BMW Style 261 wheels: 7,5x18 front ET 49, 8,5x18 rear ET 52.

The top of my front wheel is deep inside my fender, which gives my 135i a weird look and stance.

Im also considering getting dedicated track wheels, and use BMW SUV 18x8.5 wheels with offsets in the mid 40's eventually, with hopefully the same spacers.

Im concerned about useage at the track (are they safe), and rubbing issues .

Do you think wider track up on stock suspension with 15mm front and 12mm rear make sense?

I don’t think I will ever lower the car, but I do have M sports package.

Id like to hear your recommendatiuons, and place an order soon.
