Guys I spoke to EAS and they are going to try and make me happy regarding my mishap. Too me that is all that matters, I am safe, and it could have been a lot worse.
Lets all lighten up a bit, this thread as twirled a little out of control. I will send you guys some pictures of the broken lugs sometime this weekend. Cheers |

Guys they are spacers not some complex machine with intricate parts..I agree the Turners look better/stronger and they have the race lineage.
If my car hadnt come with MS on them I probably would have went with the Turners..but oh well...until my wheels fall off I will just keep on with them |

MS is a brand created by Tom @ EAS if I am not mistaken. |

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

I stopped reading this thread around page 2 where someone said "WHO THE HELL RUNS SPACERS ON THE TRACK" That's one thing about forums and why I don't participate much. Everybody is an expert/makes assumptions/ loves to inadvertently spread misinformation etc etc
For the record racecars use spacers too. Some Porsches come (or came) with spacers stock. I myself tracked for 2 years with spacers without issues. So no running spacers on the track is not an outrageous idea and who knows where that belief came from. Anyways I wanted to give my educated 2cent- forgive me if it's been discussed already. This is an E46 M3 rear diff mount. Notice something similar? It's a common E46 M3 failure. Read diff bolts get loose and back out some, or completely or snap. The thread marks (left by the bolt) are a tell-tale sign of a loose fastener. In the case of OP what I'm seeing is 5 loose lugs and the consequences of it. So I'd investigate and find why the bolts got loose |
