Burger Motorsport wheel spacers

I ordered the 10 mm front and 15 mm rear spacers as suggested on their web site. I attempted to confirm this would work for me. They have no phone number now and by the time the email query was responded to the spacers were delivered and mounted. The rear spacers rub over any bump or compression with my Michelin PSS. When Burger did call the only option suggested was rolling the fenders. I'd rather go to 10 mm all around since my motive for doing this is as follows. When I mounted my winter wheels which have an offset 10 mm more than the stock wheels there was noticeably less understeer. Logically, a 10 mm spacer added to the stock wheels should do the same. It does. Would anyone like a bargain on 15 mm spacers and bolts?

How about providing, you know, any information at all about your current setup, tires, suspension, etc

I have 12mm F and 15mm R, when I was on stock m-sport suspension I had 0 rubbing. Just FWIW. Now with ST coils 1/2" away from being max low in rear I rub on big bumps, nothing very bad though. No fender roll.

Stock except for the Michelin PSS. Based on other threads, the selection of spacer width is tough to call. Some people seem to have rubbing with 12 mm and some don't with 15 mm. I do, mostly on the left. Others have it mostly on the right. Looks like a real crapshoot.
