M3 Front control arms + spacers

I am having M3 front upper/lower control arms and 15mm spacers installed next week. I just read that the new control arms actually push the wheel out an inch or so.

Will I be able to fit Front control arms and 15mm spacers in the front? My specs are stock 264 wheels with 215 tires on the front.

I guess no one knows and you may have already tried it but my feeling is that no it wouldn't work since I've heard of people rubbing just on 15mm spacers.

Please update us on how it went!
