13mm Wheel Spacers on X2

Just slapped 2 sets of Burger 13mm wheel spacers on my X2 running OEM 225/50R18s on OEM 7.5" wheels.

https://burgertuning.com/products/g-...b06615de&_ss=r

Pics don't do the change for the better justice. I wanted to stay with a 'square' setup & didn't want to overstep so I went 13mm. In hindsight one could go 15mm square with zero problems at all IMO. I will eventually be going to about an inch wider 18 tire so still have plenty of room for that.

The kit seems super good quality. Everything fit like a glove. In about 20 min I had all 4 wheels done. Longest time was applying anti-seize on the pieces. I ordered the parts 1 late afternoon & they were at my house less than 24hrs later. Pretty amazing.

Looks awesome! Do you think 15mm would be too much? I'm still deciding if I should get the 13mm or the 15mm one for my X1.

IMO you could go with 15mm spacers without issue, especially if you're not planning on going to a bigger tire on the same OEM wheels later on.

I took a guess on what size to get, partially decided to go with 13's due to knowing I was later planning on running bigger tires (at least wider ones).

I'm also considering lower my X1 for about 30mm, is that going to be fine with 15mm as well?

I have 13 in the front and 15 in the rear and I think it’s perfect.

Sorry for the dirty car 😬

Looks good. I decided I wanted to stay with a 'square' vs 'staggered' setup hence the 13mm front & back.

Haha no worries! Why 15mm rear and 13mm front? Is there a reason to do it with different sizes? I'm not familiar with adding spacers to cars so I'm very curious.

I'm still trying to find a shop in my area so I can put them on, I'm living in a small town so finding someone to do this kind of stuff is pretty hard lol, I'll post pics once I installed them!

Guessing you don’t have a jack & lug nut wrench or socket set to spin off the nuts?

Neighbor help do it for you if you’re physically not able?

This is arguably the easiest thing you can do on your car.

Yeah, I don't have the tool. Spacers are easy to put on, but I also have lowering springs to put on, that is something I don't feel confident to do by myself :

Anyway, I found a reputable shop that can help me to install everything, it's gonna cost me for around $810 to install everything (Springs + spacers + alignment), it's a bit pricey but that's my only option for now, lol

Burger 15mm wheel spacer install

Just installed Burger 15mm all around on my stock 225/45/19. Fills the wheel well perfect. I was thinking of going with a wider tire once I replaced the runflats….not so sure anymore. An unexpected plus is the handling & steering feel….more responsive. I’ve also added an AFE CAI and did the exhaust flap mod and in sport mode the car feels completely different than before!
