Front wheel spacers

Any advice on this please

I need some spacers to fit BRABUS et35 front wheels on. Rear ok

First slight problem I've come across is that for some reason Eibach and H&R go from 5mm straight to 15mm. My wheels actually seem ok with 5mm (cheapo universals on as trial run) but do sit very close to strut, brake caliper fine, so 10mm may be better, or in-between 5mm-10mm

I have read about people having problems with the front hub cap (concealing wheel bearing) protruding when trying to slide on hub centric spacers.

Anyone with any experience/advice on it appreciated. Thanks
