ST Coilovers & Miro 111s

Hi Fellow E60ers:

I just bought some ST coilovers for my E60 N52. I'm currently running a staggered set up for F20x8.5 & R20x9.5 with H&R sport springs. I previously shaved and rolled my fenders when I got my H&Rs but wondering if I am going to need spacers and/or more rolling with my wheel set up when I install my coilovers. Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks and take care.

Looking at the measurements you'll need a 5mm spacer up front to give you the clearance between the spring perch and the inner wheel. The rears will be good.

Thanks Booyaazaa. I appreciate your insight to my situation. I will purchase some 5mm spacers. Have a great Holiday weekend.

I have 20x9.5 miro 111 all around and was thinking of going to ST Coilovers, so would I need a 12mm spacer? I wonder if that will clear the fender? Right now I rub on the wheel liner only with a 245 front tire.
