Hi Everyone,
Finally found a reasonably priced spacer company that I'm happy with. The Turner Motorsports spacers are made in the USA and have the following features: 1. Spacers need to be removed from time to time, and it's not uncommon for them to become stuck to the hub of the car. Nowhere is this more common than the four seasons of New England (where we are located), where rust makes removing anything a nightmare. Most companies tell you to use a hammer and chisel to beat the spacer off. All this does is distort the spacer which, in turn, may lead to a vibration. This latest spacer design incorporates pockets around the entire circumference of the spacer. These pockets allow you to easily pop the spacer off with a flat blade screwdriver without damaging it. 2. We start with very strong and lightweight high-grade aluminum with a strong resistance to corrosion. We go the extra step and have our spacers coated with a military-spec hard-coat for extreme corrosion prevention and with a dark gray color to blend in with your wheel and brake package for best appearance. 3. All Turner Spacers are CNC machined to very tight machining tolerances to save weight while not affecting strength. Our spacers are engineered and manufactured to preserve ride quality, last a long time, and enhance your BMW's handling and looks. 4. We laser engrave each wheel spacer with it's size for fast identification. Pricing 5mm - $75/pair 10mm - $85/pair 12.5mm - $85/pair 15mm - $85/pair 20mm - $95/pair Options 10 Extended Lug Nuts - $29 Shipping - $12 All orders can be placed by sending PayPal to michael@acuteperformance.com or giving me a call at 626.722.8881. http://www.acuteperformance.com/turn...formance_2.jpg http://www.acuteperformance.com/turn...erformance.jpg If there are any questions let me know.

Michael coming through with a sick deal for us yet again! I bought my 12.5 TMS spacers for more than 85 USED! (albeit I did get a set of bolts with them, so I still got a great deal IMO :P ) Still, awesome pricing and a great product :twoup:

I've got 2 sets of 12.5mm spacers in stock w/ extended black lug bolts. That's 4 spacers and 20 lug bolts. :)

Curious, do you usually balance spacers as well or do they already come pre-balanced?
|
How would you balance a spacer? It attaches to the hub, not the wheel. I put mine on without any balancing and have no issues. Though, to be completely fair, mine are mounted on the rear wheels, so not too much vibration comes through from there to the steering wheel. But no, AFAIK there's no balancing required - these come already balanced from factory.

No need to balance a spacer.

But yeah, I'm sure the mfg considered that and they're already balanced. I was just curious. |
Yup, they've already taken this into consideration. :)

My old engineering background ( and RC heli hobby) says to balance everything that spins to reduce vibration before mounting. Flywheels for example can be drilled on the heavy side to remove some material until it spins without vibrating.
