Where did you pick up the Rogue spacer anyways? I checked EAS and they don't have them?

While we are a full stocking Rogue dealer, We offer the Macht Schnell units instead on the spacers.

I did as well. Thanks for your help Greg with the anti-seize compound. You've done a really nice job with your car.

FWIW, I have also installed the 15/12 F/R Rogue spacers with the black extended bolts. They're fabulous, lightweight, exceptionally well made, and the sizing makes the profile look just right. Maybe it's just me, but I also sense higher cornering limits on the butt dyno with the spacers. Theoretically I'm right, but the feel could just be in my head.

How about the locking nuts then? You use four of the extended bolt and the stock locking nut then?

Wheel locks are not stock in the U.S., although I'm sure many dealers install aftermarket ones. At any rate, the RE write-up on the spacers addresses that issue and provides part numbers (McGard) for the proper length lock depending upon which spacer. They do not sell them.

That's the first thing I checked when I saw the locks this morning, and it is. My glove box flashlight was also still there, and still wrapped in plastic on my left-over '08.

They are out of stock on the wheel bolts for 18 mm and 15 mm spacers which I have on the way. I've been told they will have more in 2 weeks. I considered the stud kit from Turner Motorsports, however that is a little over kill. I'll post pics when I have them installed.

Very nice, I want to pull the trigger on this but I am just afraid of getting vibration/shimmy issues back again (I had vibration issues for a while and it was a PITA to get rid of).
I have read that you need balancing and maybe even an alignment after installing spacers, did you have to do this? Quote:

i had rogue spacers for my e46 m3. they were garbage. i had them on the rear of my car, since i run a square set up.
Regardless of the amount of anti-seize placed on the spacer, they would seize on the car. The other thing is that the lip would deform and would be a PITA to remove. Also the smoothened angled edge would be very hard to pry off when I needed to remove the spacer. All in all, I prefer the H&R by far. Maybe the new rogue ones are better. From their track record on so-so quality parts, I would stay clear from all their products - except their SSk - but thats an OEM BMW piece thats modified. hahaha works of art. There was an exhibit of human feces on display at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. What constitutes art these days?
