Wheel spacer questions

wzj519 · 09-06-2013, 10:23 PM

Hi folks,
I wanna add spacers on my 650 IX Grancoupe. However, I have checked H&R website, which shows they do not make spacers for our car specifically. It's sad. Can anybody tell me is there any good quality spacer I can put on my vehicle?

I am appreciate.

I got some Macht Schnell spacers on mine 10mm all around. Hit up nate@IND if interested. I'm sure there's plenty other vendors that have them as well.

Also for the 20" wheels of BMW? Thought up to 15mm would be ok without mods on the chassis...

Thanks for your input!

Sorry for the noobie question but why add spacers to the GC?
Its designed low and wide for a reason but i am curious what the spacers would achieve?

Thanks for your response.

Spacers always make a car perform better (unless that are too wide), the only reason the wheels arent that agressive from factory is to keep the car somewhat conservative, and make you want to buy the M car the next time around.

The M cars run lower offsets on STOCK wheels to give it a wider stance for better performance and look.

Always a thumbs up

for guys running spacers, (that have room for them) and a "do your homework" to the guys that don't

I have a F12 650 couple.. Would 18mm on the rear be overkill?... There are no other mods. Just looking to make the wheels and the fender look flush. Love the wider stance of the M6 and I am sort of going for that look.
