What Size Spacers, How Many Inch Lower Do You Think Are On This Car?

I have attached a picture of an e90 M3 I'm trying to mimic. Any feedback on what you guys think size spacers are on this car and how many inches this car is lowered would help me. I'm trying to mimic this stance. I also have the same 220m wheels

12.5 front and rear will fill the gaps and maintain the same track (wider due to wheels in back)

Yeah. If you switch to 255 fronts and 275 rears like most do, 15MM will rub up front. That was my experience anyway.
