E90 LCI front spacers

Just need some advice please.

I'm running 18" staggered MV3 setup on my E90 LCI with eibach pro springs. I'm wondering what size front spacers can I get away with?

TIA, Ad.

Have you got spacers on the rear? If not I'd probably do that first as the rears sit inside the arches a good bit more than the fronts.

If you have then I probably wouldn't go any more than 5mm on the front though I've not done mine as I like the front how it is, plus I'm quite low up front.

10mm on the rear seems to be the going rate...

I was thinking more like 12mm if that is compatible with the hub and won't catch. I have 15mm on the rear.

I have 12mm spacers on my front, 18" setup E90 LCI. No rubbing. Looks fine. If they do rub you can likely return for shorter ones depending on where you get.
