yea I went ahead and purchased some spacers and extended lug bolts, they should be here in a few days. I had some universal 10mm slip ons laying around but of course theyre not hubcentric. I threw them on for mock up purposes and took a look/ measure. 10mm cleared without the suspension fully settled with a little room to spare however I was fearful that once it is settled it might be too close for comfort so I ordered 15mm. Hopefully they wont rub the fenders now....according to my measurements they shouldnt (crossing fingers). |
Just FYI, there is a good write up on wheel spacers specific to BMW over on BFC 'Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Wheel Spacers'. Good info if you're interested...
