It is however true that anything less than 10mm is not hubcentric and will cause vibrations.

Yeah they probably changed something for 16 cause I picked up a 12mm for the front and 15mm for the rear. The fronts worked with the 15mm but not the 12mm, so I just stuck the 12mm in the back and left the front alone.

Question, with a rear spacer, how will it affect cornering performance? If at all?

It doesn't... if anything, it provides a slight wider track for the car and that results in more stability. In my opinion, its all aesthetics... can beat a car with flush wheel and tire setup

i think this is the right place to post this question, what mm lower springs and spacers do i go for on my m6 coupe if i want that flush look and low wide stance? I have the standard 295 tires.

Thanks!

that's true, I have vibration with 10mm spacers at the front.

Yes at me too, between 120kp/h - 150kp/h

Than i clean the wheel hub thoroughly, and now there is no vibration anymore

For those looking to add spacers to their car... i've just put 15mm spacers all round on my F13 M6 comp and can report no adverse wheel wobbles or shaking... can't comment on the handling at the mo as I've not really pushed it hard yet, but it seems fine... I've not noticed the difference.

Pics below...

In the process...



The side that has NO SPACERS!







Side WITH SPACERS!

Splking ive got exactly the same colour, my vibration persist between 100 - 106 MPH

Interesting, do you have the same size spacers, 15mm front and back? I am using Bimmec hub-centric spacers which are supposed to be a quality item. I've driven the car at various speeds and can't say I've noticed a vibration... do you have it at lower speeds too (like 50-53mph for example)?
