I am thinking about getting spacers for the stock wheels. I know many have spacers, but I have seen them only on aftermarket wheels.
Can you help me make up my mind?

TIA

The hubcentric spacers run a perfectly matched centerbore so there is no chance for wheel wobble/vibration. Looks amazing and increases the track. I am very happy with mine.
Look at the top of the wheel arch in the after shot, see how perfect it looks? ;)

I pulled that from the N54 tech forum. I am running 18mm rear, & 15mm front on my 535i, with stock 124 style wheels. No rub at all! And it looks really aggressive! No rub either. I'll post my own pics real soon. Search the n54 forum, & you will see a lot of threads on wheel spacers.

That is exactly what I wanted! I'm going to get a set before the winter switch-over.

Thanks Mikey!

You're welcome!! I purchased mine at velocity motorsports. Prices were good, & they came with the lengthened bolts (black too) . The selling point for me was they are called lock down spacers, because they use an Allen bolt to screw onto the rotor to hold them to the wheel, so if you take the tire off, the spacer is still held fast to the hub! Plus they are anodized black, & have the notch under the spacer to pop them off with a screwdriver. I installed all 4 in about 30 min. Sweet! Here's their web page: http://www.velocitymotorsport.com/. https://5series.net/forums/public/st...t/thumbsup.gif
