The MS Spacer kits do come with the necessary extended bolts, which are black zinc coated. This eliminates any guesswork.

I have a 2011 E93 M3 Comp package with the ZCP wheels. I'm gonna be going to a 285/30 rear tire and a 245/35 front tire...what size spacers would you recommend (I have EDC)?

The 10/10mm combo should be fine in your case, but it would be best to measure beforehand to be 100% certain.

I hope this is OK to ask in this thread: I read earlier in this thread about the potential mechanical drawbacks of using the spacers, but never fully understood the answer. So, what are the drawbacks, from a pure engineering/mechanical standpoint?
Obviously, there is some additional weight, but that has to be minor. By moving the fulcrum of the wheel/suspension point out ~15mm, what else are you impacting? I have to think that camber angle becomes more aggressive with spacers. What about EDC settings? I always assumed EDC is finely tuned for the factory geometry. The spacers would almost certainly impact that in some way. |

Anyone else getting rubbing with 18mm/15mm, or is it just the E93 (due to extra weight?). It only happens when I go over big bumps, especially with several passengers.
I think I'm going to buy some 12mm for the rear and throw the 15mm on the front. Hopefully that will be good enough.

What would you guys recommend for an E90 on stock suspension (with EDC)? I have the stock 18s and want to upgrade to ZCP 19s, swapping back and forth for summer/winter setups.

The most common setup seems to be the 15/12 combo for both wheels, but of course it also depends on what tires you have on the wheels. |

David,
From your website. Do you know the suspension/spacer specs of this car? Looks like stock M3 18s. Thanks! |

The 18mm/15mm combo would be the most aggressive and give a similar stance to the sedan pictured above.

Yes, the sedan and coupes have the same offsets, and there are no fender mods required with the OEM specifications. If you upsize your tire though, then you'd have to check your clearance.
