guy, I love my stock 166 wheels with m5 offset but i wish my rear was sitting a little more flush. Whats the maximum MM i can run without running into any rubbing issues.
I am currently looking at H&R 10mm spacers. Is this the optimal size or can i go up to 15mm?
thanks

You can measure it yourself if you want. Also, I'd recommend rogue engineering spacers.

My Ride: 530I Silver gray with gray leather with Premium Package, Logic 7 Premium sound system with Ipod interface, xenon adaptive headlights, Active steering, Power retractable rear sunshade, Comfort seats, Cold weather package and M5 OEM 166 wheels, Sprintbooster. Ceramic Tint all around, Bilstein Sports shocks with Eibach springs, Brake performance Rotors and Axxis ceramic pads.
I have an OEM 166 with M5 offset and I put in 12mm Rogue spacers in the rear and no rubbing issues. It might even accomodate 15mm spacers. My car is slightly lowered with Eibach prokit springs and Biltein sport shocks.

I recommend going with H&R TRAK+ spacers as they are a tried and true product. They?re made in Germany under ISO 9001 Quality Assurance standards, and meet the rigid safety criteria of the German TÜV.
As always, do a search for more information and other members? suggestions.
Feel free to shoot me a PM/email, or call if you had any other questions or concerns.
