So are we saying 47mm bolts are suitable for 15mm spacers or are they too long now? 27 + 15mm = 42mm

Managed to change my order from 25 to 20mm rear spacers

Can I use my pre existing locking nuts?

Correct, 47mm would be too long.

Locking nuts=yes
Locking lugs=no, youd have to get longer ones to match. Same equation applies.

Hey Ben.. I decided I'm gonna try out the 5/12 combo on my car. Do we get a special rate on here or should I just go on your website and order?

You need to roll the car after jacking it up.

Road force RF17s.. when I measured before there was a 1/2" gap but maybe I was measuring from the tread part.

Uh, that's tough there.
I need width and offset.

They are:

22x10 +38mm
22x11.5 +30mm

I think what happened is that it's been aligned and they reduced the negative camber a little since I measured it.

Lol. Should've re-measure it after alignment.

Well obviously.. It didn't cross my mind to check for rear spacer size after an engine replacement

OK, I put the 5mm spacers on the back (they do work for the back) and it's pretty good. I guess I'm being a little OCD but I can't decide if this is perfect or if I should go for the 12s on the back.

Lol, do a 3/4 shot.

From the back it looks good.
Remember that the rear fender flare goes wider on the rear top side.

Yup it's all about the angles.. just link Tinder

I'm pretty tempted to go bigger but I'm afraid to put them on since I'm sure you wouldn't want to take back spacers that have been installed. I put up a few more pics on this post.

https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...ostcount=10336

BTW, do you have any experience with these kits?

https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ecs-part...202ecs03lktkt/

Seems like it would be a cool value add to your customers to let them test fit different spacers before they buy.

Took the opportunity during good weather to swap over my winter boots with my summer shoes.
At the same time I've fitted new Eibach spacers to go with the 21" OEM wheels.
These are 15's for the fronts and 20's for the rears.
First time I've done this and after some trial and error found it very easy. The rear spacers are bolt on supplied with wheel bolts.
Attached are the before and after photos which I hope you think are worth the money - I'm certainly pleased.

Not lowered but the photos did seem the show the SUV quite low in the rear wheel arch?
When I switched on the ignition I did hear the air pump go for the rear air suspension assuming it was inflating. Seems ok now.
Attach a rear view of the rear spacers.

Guys,
Anyone having 5/20? Would that look too imbalanced with 20‘‘ (275/315) tyres?

Can you message me a price for a 15/20 setup?

I have a 2016 X6 35i xdrive on 20’ 469 wheels with OEM tires. I know you have to be in 1% in a staggered wheel setup if I go after market. Does this also apply when we push the wheels out with a 15/20 spacer?

Thank you
