Which wheels are you using? It will rub on the rear with the Oem 19s. 12mm is the max

Yes, 12mm is the maximum with both standard and Eibach's.

Even then it can rub if you have certain brands of tyres fitted.

dont go any more than 10mm on the rear it will look odd and rub, you may get away with 12mm on the front but id go 10 all round .

10mm all round is the safest option, but some will suffer breakage because of the hubcentric nature of them.

ie, the spacer is 10mm thick with a spigot bore that is also 10mm deep. This makes them very thin in the corner of the spigot diameter unless well designed.
