I got Style 220 stock 19s wrapped in Blizzaks. I bought 12.5 Turner spacers for my ZCP summer wheels, thinking about running the spacers on the winter set.

Any pics of what Style 220 on 12.5 spacers looks like?

Can you share some pictures of your setup, front and side shots?

I am currently running 15f/12r mm spacers on 245/35 front & 265/35 pirelli sottozero tires in the back. I am also dropped on H&R Race springs with 220m style 19 inch OEM wheels.

What do you think of 20 mm spacer up front and 15 mm in the back? Ive heard 18 mm has been okay for most, and H and R is only offering 20 mm as a bolt on set. I also want a wider stance now though. Still love the current 15/12 set up, perfect median between good wider stance and no rub what so ever! Highly recommend to anyone out there.

Hi Kevin@EAS (or anyone from EAS):

Need recommendation for spacers please. I don't track the car but it's absolutely essential to have "no rubbing" or "wheel vibration" at all during spirited driving. (I am OK if the wheel/tire is not totally flush with the fender as long as I am not rubbing or vibrating.)

Year/model BMW:
2008 E90 M3

OEM Wheels/offset:
Front: OEM 19x8.5, 29
Rear: OEM 19x9.5, 23

Tire size:
Front: Michelin PSS, 255/35-19
Rear: Michelin PSS, 275/35-19

Suspension:
OEM

Thank you guys.

[PS: Hoping that either the 10mm or the 12mm square setup will not rub]

can you share the answer for the guy above?

currently running:

Year/model BMW:
2013 E92 M3

OEM Wheels/offset:
Front: OEM ZCP
Rear: OEM ZCP

Tire size:
Front: Michelin PSS, 245/35-19
Rear: Michelin PSS, 265/35-19

Suspension:
OEM ZCP

No load, no passengers, no real issues with bumps as i play "landmines" or go slow.

does the 15mm make the front stick out too much?

looks like itll be 12/12 if i dont want poke? 15/12 if i dont mind poke?

I have the same car and wheels as you. I believe 15 in the front causes quite a bit of rubbing near full steering lock. If you don’t mind losing some steering angle (e.g. rarely parallel park) it might be okay but would stick out by a few mm. I think GTS uses 5mm spacers? I’d go with 10mm (max 12) front and 12mm rear (max 15).

I’ve only tried spacers a few times on the ZCP wheels, though, so take my advice with some salt.

I stopped using spacers first on the front due to the rubbing near full lock and then rear due to rubbing on bumps. I believe I had 10 front and 15 rear.

15F/12R would be flush with fenders. You can step it up to 15/18 if you want tires to poke out, not really a fan of that particular look.

so even 10/15 u rubbed??

i had my hopes up as some people were saying 12/15 were ok.

if you had 12/12 would that work?


tom @ eas
i actually dont want poke lol, is 12/12 guaranteed no rub? or is the greater offset for the front better?

15F/12R is recommended. The front wheels are countersunk inwards a bit more than the rear axle, so going with a square setup will only exaggerate what you already have.

In your opinion, what would be a good fit wheel spacer sizes for E92 M3 Competition model with 19 inch STYLE 359 ZCP 9 inch front and 10 inch rears be.
265/35 & 245/35 Michelin.
I have seen 15mm front & 12.5mm rear spacers but will these cause any rubbing/damage on the body work.
Cheers

15mm front and 12mm rear is a no rub fitment we normally do. Especially if you are on stock tires shouldnt have any issues.

As you can see 15/12 doesnt extend past the fenders, still has room for full travel.

[V10500]

Thanks for that..

Do you guys sell these swift springs on your web site?

Can u get me a price on MS 10mm and 15mm spacers. I will need them shipped to Canada. Pls dm me. Thanks.

[wyatth]

2011 E90 ZCP on stock wheels and suspension.
With PS4S 255/275s and Dinan camber plates (slightly increased height and camber up front), what spacers would fit without rubbing? Thinking 10F / 5R.

The 10/5mm would work like you mentioned or a 10mm all around should clear as well.

U should also be ok with 15 front and 10 rear

[Ne1co]

Would anyone be interested in swapping a pair of 15mm with about 300 miles on them, for a pair of 12mm? I put 15mm all round but it's a bit too much for the rear

[94jedi]

kevin @ eas Can you pm me a quote?

currently running:

Year/model BMW:
2008 E90 M3

OEM Wheels/offset:
Front: OEM style 219m (18")
Rear: OEM style 219m

Tire size:
Front: Michelin PS4S, 245/40-18
Rear: Michelin PS4S, 265/40-18

Suspension:
OEM EDC (no ZCP in 2008) but I'm considering swapping over to full ZCP suspension (10mm drop) or potentially swift springs.

What would work best? I'm guessing 15/12 F/R would still be a no-rub fittment? And what length lugs?

Thank you!
