Noob question

2020_M2CS · 05-01-2024, 09:01 AM

I’ve been reading about spacers for the M2CS and I’ve seen mixed reviews. I’m thinking a lot of the negative talk is simply surfacing from bad/unusual experiences and the good experiences go unsaid.

Any recommendations/thoughts on spacers with m2cs on stock suspension and rims (PSS if that matters)?

I’m considering the future classic 10mm front/rear with the extended bolts. Do not want to experience any vibrations etc.

On stock suspension, you're better off running 5mm spacers with minor to no rubbing. 10mm is a bit aggressive w/o further camber adjustment.

I ran 10mm all around on my Comp, and now on my CS with running 2.5 deg camber with Vorshlag camber plates. I have experienced absolutely no issues with the current setup. It certainly makes the CS look aggressive if that's what you're looking for.

He says stock suspension...I could have said I ran Vorschlags too and ran 15mm fronts and 5mm rears, but for where he's at...5mm is the safer bet..

Yes, I ran the 10mm spacers on my stock suspension Comp and CS. I then added the camber plates on the CS.

I would recommend switching to wheel studs and nuts setup if you’re going to get spacers, for better flexibility and not worrying about extended lug bolts.

Yea found some pics of 10mm and it looks aggressive like you mentioned. Probably a slight bump with 5mm would do the job. Are you still running the RacesEng stubs/bolts?

Im running 12mm spacers front / 7.5mm spacers rear with wider 255/275 MPSS tires. Looks awesome (pics in link below).

I was. Best Ti kit out there. MRG constantly galled and I had to replace 4 studs in the time I had them, but Raceseng were solid. Never once had any issue. And each time they were always hand threaded prior to following with light impact and torque wrench.

My car is lowered and I run 10mm all around from future classic. No issues with vibrations at all. I have a little rubbing at full lock but I’m not usually driving at full lock so it’s ok! 😂

For me, the spacers complete the look and fill out the wheel wells.
