I just swapped my P Zeros with Michelin PS all season4. Anyone using spacers with PSAS4 at stock height?

Anyone have any vibration? Last time I tried spacers, 3 brands all had vibration. Brand new car with clean hubs. It’s been 10 years, but I don’t know how technology would change.

It's probably how you seat the wheel on them. I tried placing two wheel hangers on mine and made sure everything was snug and it never vibrated for me.

We shall see, it was on a 15 mile car. I ordered some from Amazon that look quality and popular in the Audi groups. Hubcentric and forged. At least I can send them back worst case lol

I will be soon enough. I'm getting a small cache of parts together and then will have them installed all at the same time, in probably two or three weeks.

Can anyone comment on the factory wheel bolt specs? I see the thread pitch in the OP, but don't see length or type (conical or ball seat).

What is the most aggressive setup that I can go without rubbing?

My car is a 2023 m3 xdrive with Michellin tires and stock height.

Thank you in advance

No vibration here. Went with future classic 15 in rear and 12 in front. It's one of the few spacer brands that actually bolt to the hub and seem to fit perfectly. They even include a small dab of anti seize and brush in each pair/kit. I know they are more expensive than others but you know sometimes, you get what you pay for.

So i lost the "tire lottery" and got the Pirellis. Is 10mm upfront still the right spacer? What about the rear?

Since future classic doesn't make a 10mm spacer, what other brand is recommended? I just found out I lost the tire lottery.

If you were still curious I just had my spacers installed with 15mm in the front and 12mm in the rear on my Michelin AS4's. Here's some quick and terrible pics. I LOVE how it filled out the front gap.

Looks good!! Any rubbing on the front when turning the wheels in full lock?

None at all! Backing up into my garage requires fully locking the wheels and I didn't hear any rubbing when I parked it twice yesterday, so looks like we're in the clear with this setup.

Thread has been incredibly helpful, thanks to all your posts. Really appreciated the photos provided by iND. I'm going to start off with 12mm Front & Rear.

No spacers right now, but they are the same size/offset as the 826Ms, so the same rules should apply.

I've been watching and reading and so many sites (like kies) recommend 12 front and 15 rear to flush. Anyone know why the discrepancy in all these since ind and many ppl in this thread have 15 front and 12 rear and it flushes up nicely?

Is the front tucked more or the rear?

I have 10/12 Macht Schnell spacers on my car. They dont bolt to the hubs like the FC spacers do, but If you use wheel pin hangers, you don't need to worry about lining them up. The lug mount holes are M14x1.25. Here's a pic of the pin hangers. Amazon, like $23 a set. These are solid.

I have the ones from IND, been using them over a year now, and I know for a fact they have saved the wheels and calipers from chips/scratches. Such a great investment.
