Hey guys.

I have a set of 17x9 et30 ARC-8s that I want to continue using on my E92 M3 (non comp pgk - oem suspension). I know I should buy the 17x10 et25 for a direct fit but can't do that at this moment.

I put 18mm on the rears and it looks pretty good. I know Apex suggests 18mm all around but I am not much into the "bulldog" stance look and I don't like the idea of 18mm on the front in regards to handling and ride quality.

I am thinking either 12-12.5mm/15mm for the fronts to try out.

Would one be better than the other in terms of handling and ride quality?

245/45 in the front and 275/40 in the rear. I will probably change the fronts over to 275/40s in the spring.

Thanks!

Here's how she sits now:

Glad the 15mm spacers worked out! Let's see a photo of them mounted. With 15mm spacers the front sizes is effectively 17x9" ET15, which is only 2.7mm less aggressive than the 17x10" ET25 which we know is a direct fit.
