2013 135is Wheel Spacer sizes

Want to add some spacers to the car, all stock wheels, tires, etc.

I think 15mm would be good for the rear, just not sure on the front.
Why would someone choose 10mm instead of 12mm in the front?

Lots of threads on this, just comes down to personal preference, and the look you're going for. Lots of guys are running 15mm front and either 10 or 12mm rear. Google search some images, and you can see some of the options out there. I am currently in the same debate on which way to go. I'm running the 225/255 up-size MPSS tires and am leaning towards doing 10 or 12mm both front and rear.

I run 15mm front 10mm rear, lowered and Dinan camber plates. The front has room for more, the back is close with the 10's. OEM tire sizes

What are you lowered on, coils? I'm just going to do the Eibach Pro Kit with either Koni FSD or Bilstein B8's.

ST Coils. Set pretty low, but zero rubbing. Pumped up the shadows in the second one to try and highlight how the wheels sit. Hoping to switch to a rear wheel width/offset all around shortly, should fill out the front a little better.

Super clean. Car is nearly identical to mine, except I'm running 12mm all around.
