Hello,

I am looking for spacers to increase the distance between wheels.
I have an E61 with 124 rims. Does anybody have experience with spacers? Any particular things you need to pay attention to, for example to avoid increased vibrations of the wheels?

Any help, either technical or good sales is welcom.
I am located in Holland.

Talk to Acuteperformance or Nerweezy for spacers they will be able to help you out and answer whatever questions you may have.

thanks for the support

for your question, vibrations should not occur as long as they are hubcentric. also another cause of vibration is that the spacer may not be fully up against the hub or the wheel.

What kind of spacers would you recommend Newreezy?

Do you sell them?

I have a e61 Touring, with 18" 124 style wheels.

I read in the forum most people recommend 5 mm for front and 15 mm for rear.

Do you sell these spacers including bolts and ship them to Netherlands?

Nerweezy, I would be interested in exactly the same package shipped to the UK.

I am sure can buy them here as well, but sometimes there are huge differences in prices, so worth checking out.

Medik,
thanks for feedback.

For the 5mm spacers, this cant be hubcentric right?
Do you have any (increasedO vibration in frontwheels after mounting the spacers?

Can you tell me where did you get them, and what approx cost are?

I dont seem to be able to purchase them in holland.

thanks RIK

I just posted some rear 12mm with the longer lugs for sale. I'd need to figure out shipping though if you're interested let me know.
