The distance between the template and the wheel is about 2-3 mm. Will it fit guys?? Will be there any issues while driving and cornering?

Here are a few pics....crappy with iphone.

Too close for comfort, IMHO. 2mm can easily be the margin of error between the printing and trimming of the template.

Have you considered going for the 20mm spacer instead?

Well. A friend of mine with G37 coupe was at my garage 20 min. ago. And we tried to fit my M wheel with 15mm spacer on his coupe. The wheel sits good, not touching the caliper, but the space between is only 1mm. So I think it is not good........Damn.....

to close.... 20 mm spacer for sure! Sell your spacers... that way you dont have to worry about fronting the money!
