Should I use a thin wheel spacer or grind down the BMW calipers so they don't rub the Fuchs? Everything is already mounted with a washer on each lug so they don't rub, but I want a more permanent solution. I don't need much but wanted some insight before I just grind on the caliper.

You need a flat surface for the wheel to mount to. A washer per lug won't cut it.

In fact, i think it's rather dangerous ...
