Spacer question - C250 w/OEM C63 18" wheels

I'm looking to purchase some spacers for my 2012 C250. I want it to have a more aggressive stance. I have factory suspension/springs and OEM C63 wheels. I posted all the details of my wheels/tires below.

My question is, will these spacers on eBay be ok(link below)? It's convenient because they include the 40mm bolts I'll need. Has anyone purchased this brand before? Am I ok to run 12mm front and 15mm rear spacers with my current setup? Any insight is appreciated. if anyone has this setup or something similar can someone post some pictures???

Front - 18x8 ET 45 running 235/40ZR18 (can I add 12mm?)
Rear - 18x9 ET 54 running 255/35ZR18 (can I add 15mm?)

I searched most of the c63 forums but most everyone with spacers are using springs, so the setup isn't the same.

Thanks!!!!

Front et45 with 12mm spacer would make it et33 that would be safe to run on 8" wide.
Rear et54 with 15mm spacer would make it et39 that would also be safe to run 9" wide.

Factory lugs are 26mm I believe. So 40mm front lugs might be to night. Someone that's knows more about spacers and lugs should chime in soon. I know the offset will work fine with those spacers.

Thanks for the info. So you think the 40mm lugs should be ok?

I think the 40mm might be to long for the fronts. If the factory ones are 26mm like I believe they are then you will need to get that length plus the length of you spacers you will be running. So you will need two different sizes. One length for the fronts and one length for the rear.
