Any thoughts on Matt schell on IND? Is that a good alternative for FC or BMS? Because now I'm getting messages BmS and fc are running on back log so am thinking of cancelling my order…
If a spacer is built correctly and further, installed right- it really doesnt matter what brand you have. Its not like a tune mod in nature.

EG:

I have H&R spacers on my M8, R8, G80 X, C63S and my prior G80 RWD... plus Ive used them countless times prior. Ive also used SupremePower private label spacers as well (they are in Fullerton) with zero issues. In the Benz world there is a well known spacer option at Supreme called the Vic Special as I was the first to get spacers made correctly for the modified Benz hubs on my C63S (2017). To me, as long materials are 6061 or better you are fine. Another really good custom shop for spacers is Motorsport Tech in Nevada. They have made several sets for me (Ferrari, Tesla Plaid). Ive probably done over 30 spacer sets dating back 10 plus years. As long as they are hubcentric then you are good.

The measures you chose for the G83 will not be an issue ... one thing I dont know is whats the proper lowering setup as the G83 is heavier in the rear and you do not want a saggy back side
