I'm with MoldCAD: spacers are an iffy idea if you want to do anything other than drive on the street ... and proportionally (yes, I know this is somewhat subjective), the stock M-Sport/THP/M235 "drop" evens out the well-wheel gap proportions rather nicely.
The fact that there isn't even enough room in the wells to move the OEM wheels out more than 12mm without bodywork needed should tell you enough. And tire chains on wheels with spacers? Really? Damn that's funny!

12.5mm Fronts & 15mm Rears
Here are couple of pics. Would recommend stock springs if you plan on installing chains for winter.

Maybe not chains but low profile cables for snow traction, like something from Thule. My concern is that with spacers wheels are push out more so the cables might rub against the fender wall (especially on more aggressive spacers). Not planning to lower the car so clearance there should be good. Anyone have issue with just normal rubbing with 12-15mm spacers in the rear with full loads on those big dips?
