Please read my spacer thread. If your car is after 01/14 production, you can't use 10/12/13/15mm spacer in the front. The only one you can use is 5mm.
The 10mm is cutting it close, since there is a bevel inside the wheel where it sits on the hub. So with 10mm spacer, the wheel may not sit properly on the hub, only about 2-3mm on the hub. I don't think it will be safe enough with the weight of the car.
While the 12/13/15mm spacers, it has the hubcentric rings on it, where it won't clear the hub shoulder where it is over 15mm tall.

You can't since your car is built after the date that I mentioned.

15mm Old Part# 3075740 New Part# 3075741
20mm Old Part# 4075740 New Part# 4075741

I've got a few friends running 15/20's on their '15 and 16' M Sports without issue.
The new part numbers are just bigger in overall diameter to match the backpad of the wheels. But the hub clearance are still the same. I checked them already.

For your friends, have you asked them to take off the wheels again to check if it break or not?

I mean, I have no problem selling them, but if it break, I won't replace them for free like the last time it happened.
I got 1 forum reader, not sure if he is a member or not, bought a set of 15mm for his '16 X5 and broke it.
Then blame me for it even though there are notes on the product description on my website and filed a dispute after I explained to him everything. And the bank, of course, favors the consumer.
Even H&R stated, it is customer responsibility to check the hub clearance before install. They won't warranty them if it a damage caused by customer.
