Wanted to find out what type and size spacers members are running on?
I am personally contemplating putting 12mm Rogue spacers on my 550i. Has anyone put on spacers and wish they hadn't?? I just feel my back wheel is tucked in a little too much for my taste!

spacers for cosmetic looks. makes the wheel fill out the wheel well a bit more. just make sure that anti-seize is sprayed on them before install so it will be easier to take them off in the future if needed. ive had H&R spacers for my last set of wheels

Rogue 12mm here also. Makes the wheel look a little wider too. I don't have any pics that show what you want, but trust me...you will love the look!
+1 on the Anti-seize lube.

What is the deal with anti-seize.
Is the purpose to keep it from sticking to the rotor or to the rim/wheel itself? Also how is it applied...do you cake it on the axle or the spacer itself?
Thx
