I got the same setup as rome00710 from this post..
https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...1&postcount=44 RF17's 22x10 +38mm 22x11.5 +30mm I think the only difference is that mine isn't lowered and he said his was 1" |

12 mm do fit in the rear, but not in the front. With 15mm, you'll be poking out 3mm passed the fender. Your setup is same spec as AC Schnitzer 22" wheel.

Rome said he was running 18's in the rear and it didn't look too bad. Does being lowered make any measurable difference? |

Especially in the rear on this particular chassis. 1" drop will help you clear that 15mm all around by 1-2mm.

The issue was with older H&R 15mm design which was the same as spacer for E70.

Yea, it may be cheaper to get it locally, or even from Germany.

Question. I'm about to do a full rotor replace and was considering, being that I'll have all wheels off, to add spacers. My delima is wheel security. Is there any alternative locks available to keep my wheels from ending up on some Honda Accord? Anything from McGard?

With my 19" winters on it looks whimpy compared to my 599s. Do I need spacers? How hard are they to take off when I put my 599's back on?

This is a really good point.. when I look at mine from the front I think that I need some spacers but from the back it's good. Should we base it off of the middle of the fender.. e.g. the weighted tape/string test?

Hi All,
I've been shopping around for new spacers and finally pulled the plug on a set of Eibach Pro spacers 15mm fronts and 25mm rears. Just a couple of questions if someone could help me please 1. The rear 25mm spacers come with bolts. You bolt the spacers on with the supplied bolts to the hubs and the alloys are fitted on with the existing wheel bolts? Are the existing bolts long enough. I'm assuming I don't need extendable new bolts? 2. The front 15mm spacers are not supplied with bolts. Therefore I have bought separately, extendable bolts 47mm long to allow the extra 15mm - have I bought the correct length? Appreciate your comments guys.

Also just reading some of these threads again, I wonder if I have gone too aggressive with 25mm on the rear with my summer 21" OEM? I have 20" for my winter tyres.

25mm are super aggressive and you will have a significant poke. When I had my 21s I went 15mm H&R on all 4 corners.
