10mm spacers, and that amount of camber by themselves isn't enough.

Anyone know if a square 264 set up will work with the Ohlins R&T?
Based on the info on the Apex 135i fitment site the Ohlins are known to run a bit wider. When I ordered the Ohlins from HP Autosport I went with a shorter 7" (from HP Autosport) to add clearance. I have the M3 control arms but no camber plates - current set up *Ohlins R&T *Swift 7" 6 kg (336lb) front spring *Swift 10" 12 kg (672 lb) rear spring *M3 front control arms This set up puts me at around -1.4 degrees of camber. I think to get them to fit I'd need to get camber plates and a spacer but I am concerned they might still rub on either strut or outside fender. I really don't want to have to massage, roll or pull the fenders. Anyone know?

What size tire are you trying to run?
I've run 245/40-17 on a 17x8.5 et40 wheel up front with no spacer and it cleared my Ohlins with 7" springs at the time. I had closer to -3 deg camber though with the vorshlag plates. With a 12mm spacer the rear 18x8.5 et52 wheels would be in the same position as an et40 wheel so I don't see why it wouldn't work. Depends on the tire you want to run though.

Thinking back, I was able to run the 17x8.5 et40 wheels when I had dinan camber plates installed. There was plenty of room outboard of the wheel, I didn't have to roll my front fenders until my latest set up on the new 17x9 arc-8s.
