H&R Spacers, Do I need to get all the same size in MM if I have a 4Matic?

Tried to do a search but can't tell if the ppl running spacer's at 5mm in front and 15mm in back are rear wheel drive only?

What do you guys think is the best size spacer's if I plan on lowering car with H&R Springs and keeping stock amg 18' wheels?
Thanks

Only Wheel diameter will affect the 4Matic system.

The offset spacing will not affect the 4matic, the only thing that will cause you any trouble is the OD, so wheels and tires are the key to match front and rear based on the OD size.
Be sure if you are spacing the wheels that you use hub-centric spacers and have the properly matched lug bolts.

Thanks for replying, so running H&R hub centric spacers at 10mm front and 15 mm back will be fine on a 4matic with H&R Springs?

The offset spacing is not going to affect your 4Matic function, the overall diameter meaning the height front to rear is what needs to be matched.

The H&R spacers and lug bolts typically are the more expensive options, but also the most reliable...gets down to; you get what you pay for!

You will for sure be much happier with the look of the wheels pushed out, the factory is so conservative with their offsets...meeting the fender edge will definitely give it an improved look.
