M Spec tyre sizes, Eibachs and 20/15mm Spacers will they rub?

The rear tyres on my 2005 3.0i with 107's are getting ready for replacement and I have long thought that when the zed needs tyres I would plum for the M spec tyres sizes all round with their 45/40 profiles as a way to improve the ride comfort, despite them costing quite a bit more than the regular 3.0i 40/35 profile tyres. However I have just fitted some 15mm Front/ 20mm Rear spacers and plan on adding a B12 kit to it soon and its just dawned on me the extra height of the M Spec tyres may cause rubbing issues. Has anyone else gone down this route or can anyone advise if it will work or do I need to either run smaller spacers or the normal size tyres.

I did try searching but I couldn't find anything where someone has used an eibach, 15/20mm spacers and M Spec tyres combo

thanks
 
I had the same thoughts and in the end decided I couldn't warrant the extra cost.

15mm spacers on the front with eibachs and 225/45/18 tyres is asking for trouble imo.
