Spacers

Monty1983 · 01-09-2014, 12:40 PM

Hey guys. I'm new to the site but I've been through tons of the threads. I have seen a lot of spacer pics but I am yet to see 20mm all around on a lowered e92 M3. I know it sounds extreme but I know it's been done. Pics would be greatly appreciated!! 15mm all around would help also. I have to make up my mind soon!
Thanks.

Welcome! Do a search and you will find there are many threads on spacers. Your post says nothing about what wheels and tires you have. Your question is not answerable without telling us your wheels specs at a minimum. We would also need to know much are you lowered. Do you have negative camber? I assume you are on OEM since you didn't state which wheels you have. I am not aware of anyone who has ran 20mm spacers on OEM wheels. The largest I have seen is 18mm. Here is the best "spacer" thread with pictures of various options.

Getting close.... Which 19" OEM wheels? ZCP wheels are wider than the 220M 19" OEM wheels with different offsets...

I run the 15mm/12mm combo and think its perfect.

Just today I put on turner spacers 15/12 and on V3 at the lowest setting. Looks great but have rubbing in the rear. On 220s with pilots OEM specs.

I get light rubbing in back on stock 18" rims with 10mm spacers and coilover suspension lowered 0.5 inch. No way will anything more than 10mm clear the rear fender liners on a lowered car without modifying the rear liners.

SoCal BimMn' · 01-09-2014, 07:49 PM

Had 18mm front and 15mm on 220m wheels and factory tires lowered on H&R sport springs with factory camber, no rubbing even with a full car and hitting big dips. With that said 20mm spacers all around with require adjusting camber all around then it might work, if anything rolling rear fenders should do the trick also an alignment afterwards but I'm not sure you'd wanna go that far. Depends on which is more import to form or function.

Monty1983 · 01-09-2014, 08:54 PM

Thanks for the input guys. The precise wheels are Front: 19x8.5 OEM M3, ET29
Rear: 19x9.5 OEM M3, ET23. On ps2 rubber. I'm thinking of maybe 15mm front and 18mm rear after this feedback.

Had my eibachs plus spacers (15/12) installed. Picked up today...

Wow. What a difference (looks and handling). No shimmy either.
Pic coming soon...
