We at Sonic MS are proud to present a revolutionary new type of wheel spacer that is now available to the BMW community.


Precision milled in the United States out of T6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum, Verstra?e (pronounced Verstrasse) weight optimized wheel spacers utilize an industry first pentagon shaped design in order to minimize weight without sacrificing the structural integrity of the spacer itself.



Furthermore, Verstra?e's Motorsport Technik Wheel Spacers for BMWs utilize machined pocketing in order to further minimize unpsrung weight for maximum performance.



These spacers also use chamfered edges to allow for easier removal and are anodized in a matte silver finish for additional strength and corrosion resistance.



Verstra?e spacers are machined with surgical grade precision utilizing tolerances within 1/1000th of an inch, this guarantees a perfect fitting spacer that is hubcentric and virtually eliminates any risk of vibration issues. In addition, Finite Element Anaylsis (FEA) simulations are run to ensure the weight optimized design of the spacers does not sacrifice structural integrity.



Wheel spacers are used to give a car a wider stance, which increases lateral stability in addition to giving the car a more aggressive stance. Stock suspension and wheel setups are fairly conservative in regards to the amount of gap between the wheel and the fender, and wheel spacers help correct this by pushing the wheel towards the fender well, filling the gap.



Each Verstra?e Motorsport Technik Wheel Spacer set includes matching extended lug bolts which are dacromet coated in an OEM black finish for corrosion resistance.



Features:
  • Machined out of T6061-T6 aircarft grade aluminum
  • Hubcentric fitment with surgical grade precision tolerances - guaranteeing no risk of vibration issues
  • Spacer design subjected to FEA analysis to ensure safe structural integrity under load
  • Unique Motorsport inspired pentagon shaped design further optimizes weight reduction in comparison to traditional rounded spacers
  • Anodized in a matte silver finish for additional strength and corrosion resistance
  • Gives your car a wider stance and improves handling and appearance
  • Includes matching set of dacromet coated extended wheel bolts

Verstra?e Motorsport Technik Wheel Spacer Package Includes:
QTY 2 - Weight Optimized Wheel Spacers
QTY 10 - Extended dacromet coated wheel bolts

MSRP Pricing:
5mm - $114.99
10mm/12mm/15mm - $174.99

curious to know what these weigh in comparison to other brands since it is mentioned this uncommon shape is used to decrease weight without sacrificing structural integrity

We'll try and get some weight comparisons soon...

Here is a quick picture evidencing how much material is physically saved from a traditional rounded wheel spacer. As you can imagine, this would result in a pretty significant amount of weight savings when you get to double digit millimeter thickness.

Has anyone gotten this spacer yet? Looks like it is lighter than the round kind but sometimes less is not good at high speed. I'm interested in it but need to know if there will be any vibration.

These spacers are super light!!! i've got 12mm up front and 15mm rear. I've driven the car at high speed with no vibrations. I highly recommend these spacers.

Cal, you need to get some comparison measurements between these spacers and other brands like H&R, Eibach and Match Schnell. Also, like rctmthouse stated above, any vibrations at high speeds? Can the owner of the car above go take it for a spin at 150+ and report back.

We will try and get some comparison weights soon.

None of our customers have complained about vibration issues on these spacers.
