I've used spacers on my last 3 cars with no issues at all. Size of 12mm all round and 10mm F & 15mm rear on one car.

Have always used Eibach hubcentric spacers with correct length bolts and had a full geometry set up after installation.

You will also find that AC Schnitzer use spacers as well with their wheels, as not all their offsets are suitable for all cars, so if they are good enough for them, they're good enough for me.
