12mm Front Spacers

Diesel Flash · 01-24-2016, 03:42 AM

I was asked recently asked what 12mm spacers with 20" Avantgarde m5 rep setup, lowered on H&R 35mm springs would look like.

9x20 et35. 245/35/20 tyres.
heres a few pics.

Nope, rear is et38 275/30/20 lowered approx 15mm and to be honest you would probably only get away with a non hubcentric 5mm if that even!

So ive just left them alone

Gotta fill those arch's, i wouldnt sleep at night if they werent flush. Literally the front without the 12mm spacer bugged the hell out of me.

Bmw doubles · 01-24-2016, 04:25 PM

Wow, 12 in the front is just right.

dadysev · 01-28-2016, 08:12 PM

Just bought some 12mm spacers for my front because of this thread. Lol. It was bugging me. I have 20x9 and et35 also. Hope it looks good in the spring when she comes out of hibernation

Nice cars! I agree 12mm up front is perfect. I have the same specs (20x9 et35 245/35) lowered on Megan coils with less than a finger gap. The wheel specs and the natural camber made it look horrible. Here's two pics with and without.

lsturbointeg · 02-06-2016, 03:40 PM

^^^^

let's see a side shot! but yes, you can totally see the difference

I did 12mm in the front and 10mm in the rear.

dadysev · 02-06-2016, 09:07 PM

Looking Phat!!! Can't wait till April to pull mine out and put my 12mm spacers on. I swear i'm having withdrawals.
