can i use 15mm spacers and h&r sport springs?

My question is fairly simple...I like the stock e90 330i sport rims (cant remember the # but most of you know them) what I want to know is can I put 15mm spacers on all four corners and lower the car with h&r sport springs without rolling the fenders or would they need to be rolled or would this set up work period? would they need to be 12mm or maybe 10mm? I do plan on buying some 19" rims which would be staggered so all I would need to do would be take off the spacers if the offset is correct which I would get the correct offset so Im not worried about that but does anyone have some advice as to if this set up would work well? Thanks for the help

I use 18mm spacers with my H&R sport springs on my E92. It will 100% be no problem on an E90, and I recommend you you use 20mm spacers.

Regardless of what same may tell you, it fits and it looks awesome.

15mm works fine in the rear. Not sure about the front... maybe 10mm would be the most I'd go up front, for effective ET22 offset wheels (from the stock 18x8 ET32 + 10mm).

Front wheels can fit 12-15mm spacers as well.
