There are very few pics with spacers so I'll help you out.
My car is lowered on 20mm H&R Springs.
I use Eibach spacers. Tires: 275/30/19 235/35/19
Front 15mm on each side
Rear 10mm on each side
10mm rear and 15mm front on stock OEM 18" (winter setup)
Final setup - 10mm rear and 15mm front

Thanks Carl 
I have to make a small adjustment though and go with 255/30/19 in the back because I hear massive fender rubbing with two passengers in the back.

Lots of people use spacers but it's not the best idea in the world. You change the offset which changes the alignment. You're adding unsprung rotational weight to each corner, (never a good thing). Any pick up in handling is minor so it just a looks thing.

2012 C63 Coupe. Eurocharged, Charcoal Filters Removed, R-S3 Tires
Hi guys I have a question to everyone. Should I put spacers on my 2012 C63 coupe or not. I have stock 18" wheels. Rear tires are 265 wide. I already ordered 12mm back and front spacers but than I start having all these negative feedbacks from different people who say that it's ether dangerous especially the way I push this car in the corners or it can damage the car as I change some... 
something 
What do you think? Should I or should I not?

I have 12 mm in the back and 15mm in the front. 2012 coupe P31. The loook is perfect. Very agressive and looks good. The only preoblem I'm have now is should I buy H&R springs with these spacers. I don't know if it willl rub? Does anyone have a opoinion or a axample?

H&R sports on a P30. 12mm front. 10mm back.
Not worried about it at all. You know what scares me? Tires. I hear from some buddies that those things can go flat. And I have 4 of them on my car!!!
Seriously tho. I also got good quality bolts that are of an appropriate length and everything is fine. Had them on multiple cars. I am also unconcerned about the additional small amount of unsprung weight. Guys add more weight by changing their rims, or their rim size or the width of their tires.
I can tell you that every time you see a car in an ad they have done 3 things: lowered, spacered and tinted. I've now done all 3 to my car and I can tell that no matter what these crappy phone pics show (or dont) it now just looks right. The stance is perfect and the car looks much stronger.
