See if these pics attach/post.

These are newly installed Bimecc 12.5's - stock springs.

So - a few impressions:

1) I looked at a ton of pics - you just cannot get a real feel until you put them on and see in person. I am happy w/ these spacers.
2) I certainly do not notice some increase in wheel space/gap around the tire WITH the spacers on.
3) I want to track this car later this year - a bunch of you guys are probably smarter than me - but I am pretty sure lowering springs +/- spacers change handling and geometry. Stock, these cars handle well. I never want to endeavor to add any part that detracts from the cars performance. 12mm is really all I wanted to do to not hurt/change performance.

I appreciate your feedback. I am going to put spacers in one of these days, but have no interest in lowering my car.

Looking for some feedback
I had 12/15mm spacers from my M2 laying around and figured I'd see what they look like on this car.
12 on the front
15 on the rear

Looks good, but you need to lower the car and its going to look even better

I am debating on lowering it once I get the break in service done.

20mm spacers all around

i just added 20mm spacers all around my g80 i was wondering if this would mess up the suspension overtime or have any side effects

This is how the car sits as off now
