H&R 10mm and 15mm spacers

PepE92M3 · 05-03-2011, 07:36 AM

I planning to install spacers to my 07 E92 328i sports package (197 wheels) 10mm - front & 15mm rear. Pls. need some advise and suggestion. And I have some questions in my mind.

a. Will it void the warranty?
b. Will it affect the underchasis and will I need alighnment after installation?
c. Did anybody have done this set up and if possible to share some pictures to see how it looks?

Thanks,

You should be fine, BUT I would recommend an alignment for sure if you take the wheels off.

as far as warranty goes, it will most likely void it if the dealer see them, just take them off first before you take your car there. under normal circumstances, you should not have to get a wheel alignment after the installation, but if your car pull to one side, then go get one, wouldn't hurt, but make sure you dont do that at your dealer, as soon as they see your spacer...oh boy

Why would you need an alignment if you take the wheels off? You are not affecting the alignment by taking the wheels off since you are not adjusting anything with the suspension.... No you will not void you're warranty.

+1 You do not need an alignment for spacers or changing the wheels. You do need an alignment for any changes to the suspension (struts/springs/bushings).

I can't see why spacers would void the warranty, they are a very straight forward upgrade.
