Bmw 535i spacers bad or not ?
Hello
Im new on this forum and i have just bought a BMW 535 i Xdrive , and i have a question The car had 18" inch wheels when i bought it then i bought 20 " inch wheels 245-40-20 F 275-35-20 R and i saw that the car had Spacers. i didnt had the originals bolts so i keep it with the spacers My questions is if these spacers affects my driving or something ? The car works normally i dont hear any sound or something like this , i just want to know if it force other parts or something like this . I uploaded some pictures before and after. These spacers affects the angle of the tire ? Thank you !! |

I have BMS 15mm(rear) on OEM 19". 535i xDrive, I drive approx 85miles a day and no issue. You might get alil uneven wear if it's not aligned & camber adjusted. I just replaced my rear tires that were worn down(due to mileage) & noticed the inner edge had alittle more wear nothing crazy. If you havent felt/heard anything You have nothing to worry about.
GoodLuck Think I'll be more worried about that chrome twoTone. Lol J/K Post some pics of that wrap, never seen anything like it before.

I'm running 10mm in the front with 15mm in the rear. Its not "bad" for the car in terms of yo wont get any errors. But it does create camber on the tires which causes the inner side of the tire to fade quicker so make sure you rotate your tires frequently.

Noone ever posted as I can recall, a problem related to spacers. So I think youre fine, or you can try to fit wheels without spacers - if they dont catch the brakes, then you are good. Personally would prefer no spacers and correct offsets.

whether they're hub centric or just regular spacers it's always been said across any car forum boards that it could cause premature wear on your bearings and other components. for me it was on my truck. I ran 2" spacers and eventually my hub bearings decided to say enough is enough! tho I never heard or seen anyone post here about bearing failures due to spacers?

trucks are common to run big spacers
