Most people use 15mm up front and 12mm in the rear. I've seen 15 and 15 but the rears seem a little too far out. I've heard of people using 18f and 15r but I think that is pushing it.

I've used 15/12, 15/15 and currently 18/15. Up to you.

depends on tires

I run Pirelli P Zero Corsa 255/35/19 and 285/30/19 and all I can manage are F 10mm/R 5mm spacers

I've ran 18/15mm on stock 220 wheels and lowered on eibach. It looked great and no issues at all.

Thanks for all replies. Anybody with 359 wheels can tell me their expierence?

I have 359 with 15/12 and they fit fine. I also tried 12/15mm and they fit fine. Currently back to 15mm/12mm on stock comp edition suspension.

15F/10R mm here, on 359's on a e90, no issues whatsoever.

If running stock sized tires, 15mm/12mm combo is recommended.

There are lots of similar examples in this thread to reference from:

Hope this helps!

I think the best choice will be 15/12.
Thanks again

I've used both Turner and MS.

Totally depends on tires. Running 12mm F & 10mm R on 255/275 PSS's. I get a slight innocuous rub in the rear on large G loaded dips.

none, stock zcp...

The H&R are easier to find in Europe. What do you think about these spacers?
thanks!!

Finally I ordered a Eibach spacers 15 front and 12 rear. Once they had been installed I am not happy with the final result. This is why with the zcp wheels the corner of the Michelin tyres goes away from the fender. W have modified the spacers to 12.5 mm front and 8.5 mm at the rear.
We did reduce the rear axle lip to fit the 8.5 spacer

I have a front wheel vibration at 140 kmh aprox, I don't if it is produced by the spacers or because the tyres are 4 years old. Whe have lowered the front spacers from 15 mm to 12,5mm, and I am wondering if this why they vibrate. I have little vibration at120 kmh before the fittment of the spacers, but now the vibration has increase. What do you think?

There is slight rubbing in the rear with the 12mm rear spacers installed on the 359m wheels. To mend that problem, you have to drive in EDC 1 mode.

12/15 with 359’s, EDC and lowered to minimize wheel gap. With a 265 rear and 245 front, I’ve never rubbed. 12/15 gets you flush and the only time you will rub is if you go too low. I would recommend an adjustable coil over setup, so you can adjust as desired. When I go out to track days I raise it up a little. If you are not making extreme changes an alignment isn’t necessary. I feel like for my tastes it’s like 5 collar turns from my daily position to a track position. I am not breaking any records though, so I’m sure there are more noligible folks regarding camber and/or more serious setups.
