Spacer fitment

I have a spare set of Macht Schnell 10mm spacers I just tried to put on my 228i rear, but to my chagrin, they don't fit! The hub ring sticks out too far so the spacer won't sit flush against the face of the rotor. Some cross referencing shows that the 228i rear hub is the same as the F30 328i hub, which they claim to fit. I'm curious if the F30 guys have had any trouble getting these spacers to fit properly. Anyone else tried to fit spacers yet?

**edit** It just occurred to me that I posted this in brakes, but if it's more appropriate in wheels/tires then can someone move it?

Did you ever get this squared away? I'm looking to add some spacers on my 228i m sport as we'll. I've read that the front can use the 10mm and 12mm, while the thinnest rear can only be 15mm.
I'd love to hear your experience

This is my fault for posting in the wrong section originally. Here is the link to the thread in the correct forum with dharo1's photos:
