Getting my spacers on today

Hi Everyone, I really didn't like the way the rims looked inside the wheel well. I'm adding 15mm through out. We will see how it looks after.

They are indeed 20" 9.5 wide…. I'm not sure about the offset but they seem pretty similar.

Which tires do you have, Michelin or Pirelli?

I went with Goodyear run flat…. I figured I can burn through those. I had the Perrelli on my stock rims.

Thanks. That explains the 15mm spacers all around.

Do you mind explaining what you mean? Maybe I did something wrong?

Not familiar with the Goodyear run flats, but with Pirellis if you were to go with anything beyond 10mm in the front the tire would rub against the fins inside the fenders when in full lock while reversing. This ends up damaging the fins. Some have cut them out or used a heat gun to move them out of the way. The Pirellis have a thicker side wall. No issues with Michelins.

IND Spacers 15mm buyer beware https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1818990

Thank you! After a week I have not felt any rubbing at all. I got lucky!

it just seems that 15mm spacers wouldve flushed the rears a bit more. love the wheels, regardless...

In hindsight I wish I would of got a bit thicker tire in the rear, there is a bit of road noise.
