Wheel Spacers
Looking to add wheel spacers on my 550. I was wondering if that was a certain kind to get and what size looks the best? Thanks

Personally I have BMS, 10mm front and 15mm rear. If you are lowered 12mm front and 18mm rear works to because the negative camber.

In theory, shouldn't a wider track made by the spacers enhance the handling?

Perhaps in theory but in the real world I dont think anyone sees a handling benefit provided by spacers. I know at least I have never felt any difference by having spacers on my cars. Generally, most people use spacers in the 10-15mm range which is obviously not very big but does make a difference visually.
