F87 M2 Wheel Spacers Fitment Thread
Just thought I'd start a thread where we can share our wheel spacer fitments and how flush they sit to the fender.

They are pretty flush as is, we threw on a 5mm spacer on the front.

Yeah, I think 5 mm front and rear is enough. Anything more than that and it will be outside the fender. I know some people like that look but it looks terrible in my opinion.

When you lowered yours, how much did they tuck in compared to stock?

I did try out 10 mm spacers on the rear wheels.
Mine is lowered with Mperformance coilovers. 10 mm is in my opinion too much. 5 mm would be perfect. I left it as standard for the time being and its almost flush. I have also read that a few members have up to 15 mm......the wheel sticks out already with the 10 mm. For the front wheels I did not try. You will need a spacer with centre hub and therefore you will end up with 10 mm. 10 mm is to much what I could see. Hope this info is usable for some. Cheers |

I am about to purchase some spacers and was under the impression that many have gone with 10mm and it sits flush not outside..

My Volks are on order. 23 offset in front and 34 in rear. Stock widths. Based upon this thread it sounds about right. Crossing my fingers.

Curious about measurements as well. I just about bought a set of 10mm & 12mm from Burger Motorsports before seeing this thread. If you could share what you found, that would be awesome.

Those spacers will work out perfectly, although you should run the larger spacer up front. A square track setup is looking like 275 square on 10's et 35 all around. But you'll need to run one of those spacers up front to clear the strut. 12mm is perfect for the front at that offset and width |
