15mm spacers fit front and rear Z4M

Front and rear H&R spacers with H&R springs. Fits perfect IMHO. Flush.

Update! Just put some Super Sports on the rear and have major rub on the fender edge!. Guess the SS's are more square. goGoing to remove the rear 15 spacers and put back to stock. Will sell and contemplate getting some 10's

I had a bit of Rub with 12.5mm spacers on the rear and 265/35/18 Dunlop Star Specs. Just a hair overboard... Lowered on the GC's to the same height I had with the H & R's.

I assume you went back to stock? I might try some 12mm but not sure it's worth the trouble

I would but they were a 1/8" out of the well. Did not like. A 12 mm will be perfect. I hope

if they were 1/8" sticking out, i would go with 10mm. 5 mm really isnt noticable.

Got 12.5mm Turner Motorsport spacers all around on mine and haven't experienced any rub. Although if i'm being honest i'm not sure i'd be able to hear it anyway over the RPI's. Does rubbing make a particularly loud noise? For reference i'm on stock wheels with 225/45/18 and 255/40/18 Yokohama Advan Neova AD08's.

On the OE's I went down to a 5MM spacer on the rears. Now I've got the Advans on and the Offsets are such that no spacers are required.

Ordered the 12.5mm TMS one today. Sold the 15mm. I just don't learn do I?

Not tracking so hopefully no rub during spirited driving. Anyone want dibs on 12.5mm if they no worky? $90 shipped with wheel bolts?

What tire size are you running on the rear?

Stock. Brand new Michelin Super sports. Was fine till those went on then rub started. Very square and a bit wider than my PS2's. The old tires had hardly any tread on them and I'm sure that was an factor as they had more circumference.

I'm guessing you'll be fine with the 12.5mm spacers - I was barely rubbing with a similar setup with the 265's
