Would a 10or15mm spacer get me clearance ?

[Coouuper S]

Hey people, whats happening...

I am putting my Mini wheels on to my E30 and running into front brake caliber clearance problems. I do understand that I need a 15mm spacer to make a 38offset look decent but I do want to make sure that the spacers will clear this issue I am having. I am very sure that they will since the spacers are the same size as the hub. My wheels have a bigger bore so it slightly rubs against the caliber. I even belive a 5mm spacer will work but I just want to make sure.

btw-sorry for the bad pics, taken by a camera phone. You can see the caliber bracket sitting on the wheel hub.

Thanks alot in advance.

I'd say go all out with the 15mm .

For sure it will clear and plus it will look better as well .

Either 10 or 15 would work, 15's giving a more aggressive stance.

Ain't that big of a baller yet. I would but I dont want to deal with scraping tires and etc. 225/50/15 with an offset of 18 would not be good.
