Offset difference between M5 and M6 on the rears is 11mm. I've read members putting 12mm and look good, no rubbing issues. Have even read one post with 15mm spacers without rubbing. I vote for 12mm

Would the wheel spacer recommendation of 12mm apply to the rear factory staggered 124s 535xi as well as the 530 discussed above? Or should I be going with 15mm for rear only? Thanks.
