15mm front and 12mm rear spacers on OEM BMW 101m BBS staggered rims 335i e91 LCI

meshuggener · 01-24-2014, 04:09 PM

Hey guys...

So the specs I'm running on my LCI e91 are

Rear 19x9 offset et39, tyre size 265/30/19
Front 19x8 offset et37, tyre size 225/35/19

As you can see from the pics the wheels are too sunken. I reckon a 15mm spacer up front should be safe, maybe even 20mm?? ( I did the coin and sellotape measure )

However 12mm in the rear may have contact with the plastic part of the bumper and any less than 12mm wont be hubcentric.

Has anyone had experience running close to this setup? And can you roll or shave the plastic part of the rear bumper or am I looking for trouble?

Cheers all

15 and 12 should work. It's gonna be close in the rear though because of the 265 on a 9" wheel.

Thanks man. Yeah the rear tyre is pretty square. No one else had any experience?

Anyone done 20mm up front and 12mm rear? Would that vibrate and throw the handling all up the shitter?

I'd go with a 15f/12r setup
