12 mm Spacers on CP M4; any regrets?

Ilikemike · 04-17-2017, 06:50 PM

Putting 12mm spacers all round on a 2017 CP M4 on Wednesday. I don't track the car but wonder if there are any negative experiences concerning changes in handling during street use.

There's no issues with running 12-15mm spacers, as long as it's hub centric and comes with longer wheel bolts. Make sure you clean the mounting areas with a wire brush prior to mounting.

12mm is a good look.

OP did you end up doing 12 mm all around? I'm thinking 12 mm in the rear as well and wanted to see if it caused any issues?

No, the installer did not have the correct bolt length, so I cancelled with him.... All of the research indicates no rubbing issues and, for non-track use, nobody seems to have had any issues....

There is definitely no rubbing with 12mm, I have 13mm in the back and I have no issues.
