What size spacers would u recommend on my 535i?



Really would like to know what would you recommend for an aggressive offset? I was gonna go with burger tuning or if you guys have any other spacers to go with. Hope these pictures help! Also, will be lowered on coilovers...not sure what kind? Appreciate all help!

id wait until you drop it on coilovers and then figure out the spacer situation, because your specs will change a bit

Part of the reason also is during cold winters the car will sit stock height so I'd like to know what's going to look good both heights.

These are factory so the specs say 8.5 × 20 front and 9 × 20 rear. Doesn't say anything about the offset?

+ 1. Everyone's suspension geometry is a bit different. There's a "one-size suits most" when just looking at width/offset combination. However, if you want something EXACTLY to your liking.. I'd suggest doing a few measurements before purchasing the spacers
