I have seen on this forum alot of people are running spacers to move the wheel out a little to fill the wheel well. I am not looking to replace the wheels. Has anyone else have problems with vibration??? Thanks Ben

I'm doing 10mm front and 15mm rear. As long as you properly install them .. ie, clean off the rust and other corrosion from the hub, use longer threaded lug nuts, ofcourse properly tightened, there should be no issues. Haven't seen any complaints posted from anyone who's done it here so I'm not expecting issues atleast.
Should get my car back this comming Monday with new tires, software, and the M-Aero kit done. Then I can install the spacers and new PIAA fogs. Ofcourse many pics will be comming!!

I have been considering the spacers since your post regarding e60 wheel options.
Looking forward to the pictures and results.

I ordered 12mm (H&R) on the rear also.
Like Kigerka is saying - it matches more the front.
Also i'm afraid for rubbing if i increase it furthur.
Should have them within the next 2 weeks.
