Can someone be kind enough to post a picture of the rear wheels without spacer for the M167 M5 offset. I have a set of M167 w/ M5 offset, however, I am not sure whether I should run a spacer. I would like to stay away from the spacer as much as possible. Are the rear wheels being pushed in alot compare to M6 offset? Is it really ugly w/o spacer?
Please kindly post a picture of the rear wheels w/o spacer. Thanks

Since the 166's have the same offset for the M5 as your M5 167's, here are a few of my old M5 (hard to believe this is C's same car):

Here's a pic of M5 rims (ET28) on an E60 WITHOUT spacers; my previous E60 m-sport (incl. m-sport suspension):
You can see on the second picture that they do not sit as well as the front rims. As Nerweezy wrote, 12mm would sort that.
