Pre-LCI E92 335i on 15mm(F)/18mm(R) Spacers

I have a pre-LCI e92 335i and I'll be getting KW Street Comforts installed next week.

Since I'm in winter-mode, I'll be keeping my stock 189s on. They're currently wrapped in Conti DWS', 225/40/18 and 255/35/18.

With (full) fender rolls, will be I alright with 15mm spacers in the front and 18mm in the rear? (I want absolutely no "poke".)

I searched and saw some threads regarding 18mm in the rears, but not really 15mm in the front. I also wanted some more recent feedback, if possible.

Im not sure about 15mm in the front? I know you would be safe with 12mm front and 18mm rear. Maybe even 20mm in the rear.

Yeah, I wasn't sure with 15mm, but knew that 12mm has been used plenty.

From those pictures, I can tell the 20mm for the rear is perfect. I PMed the owner of the car to see if he has better pictures of the 12mm in the front. It seems there might be a little play room?

So front would be 18x8 et19 with spacer. It should work with 225/40/18. I have seen few with 18x8 et20. I have 17x8 et20 winter setup. I don't see that the 1mm would make huge difference.
