Front spacers for E92 sport suspension and 189 wheels

Patrys@BimmerTech · 07-03-2009, 04:44 AM

Hi guys,

I installed a set of 15mm rear spacers yesterday and the car looks great now, but I think I would like to add some spacers to the front as well.
Could somebody please tell me if 15mm spacers fit front wheels without rubbing ?
I would really like to go with the same size for front and rear spacers.

You can see my setup in the title.

Thanks.

i tried to put 10 mm in the front on 230 wheels (225/19) lowered 1 inch and it was running on turning the wheel to the end both left / right.

My front wheels are 225/40/18 and I am not planning to lower the car.
I hope somebody with the same setup and 15mm spacers will chime in.

15mm is too much in the front, no need for more than 5mm in the front, I'd say.

With each car, comes different alignment and tire characteristics. I would suggest pulling out some measuring tape and seeing how much clearance you have on your wheel/tire setup and getting a spacers accordingly.

5mm is the ideal size for the front i think!

If you say so I will go with 5mm

Thanks.
