Spacers Advice

I have a pair of 15mm spacers here - was going to try them on the M3.

Running stock wheels on 265/35 R19 on the rear (potenzas). They look a bit tight - stock suspension - do you think they will fit?

If the car is on a standard setup, then 15mm should be fine. You could always measure before going to the hassle of fitting?

Im really confused on how to measure - like the tyres are not stretched so they do come over the lip of the wheel. I presume measuring from the tyre wall to the inner side of the arch is the space?

Yep, go from the outer tyre wall to the inner lip of the rear arch

Same dilemma here, getting 15mm spacers and fitting the eibach pro springs on Tuesday.

Elmo are you still on the 19" polished rims? Tyres should be 255/35 i think

[Valdelisbmw]

12mm on the back and 15 mm on the front .
if front tires 225 , back should be 255
if front tires 235, back should be 265

Hmmm i on 225 front, 255 back.

So I have the 'wrong' staggered set up?

[DreamcarAl]

225 and 255 is right.

Hmmm sorry - 265 I have! Wonder why that is?
