I was running 12.5mm in the rear with the stock tire size with no issues. I recently changed my rear tires to the PSS in 275-35-19 and they rubbed with the 12.5mm spacers, so I'm need to get some 10mm.

For the street I run 10mm F, 5mm R. Didn't like the look of the 10s on the rear plus would likely rub w/ my suspension

10mm Spacer issues?
Just read this on Turner's site and called and received the same advice from them on the phone. Can anyone confirm that this is or is not an issue? From what I have seen plenty of people run 10mm, so I can't imagine it's a problem...
**A note about 10mm spacers: Any 10mm spacer is considered a custom fitment. The stock hubcentric lip on BMWs can stick out by as much as 11mm. A 10mm spacer will bottom-out and leave a gap between the spacer and the hub which seriously compromises safety. The best way around this is using a larger spacer (12mm and larger do not have this issue) or check that the lip sticks out less than 10mm. In some cases you can modify the hub lip to get the 10mm spacer to fully seat on the hub. here: https://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-3...tions/?pdk=AwE I'm on H&R Sport springs with stock size tires at the moment. Plan to go to 255/275 or 265/285 tires in the near future. Turner wanted to sell me 12mm spacers, but I'm pretty sure that'll rub with with either of those tires and my ride height. Anyone with 10mm front or rear have this issue? Which brand spacers were you using? Thanks in advance! -Dave

I just installed my Macht Schnell spacers this weekend and I'm running stock tire size on Michelin PSS with 12mm front and 10mm back on stock suspect suspension. I am rubbing at the front ever so slightly at almost full lock. I usually notice it when I'm backing out of my driveway that's on a slight vertical incline.
I don't have the revised fender liners so hoping to get those soon and replace the current ones. |

Just fitted 10mm front and rear from ECS. I'm on H&R springs and OE tire sizes. I think these look good and should give room for wider rubber.

I measured with calipers on my car and the hub flange depth was 11.75mm. I went with the 10mm since I'm on H&R springs and think I want to go with 265/285 tires which will hopefully still not rub. (I have the revised front fender liners as well).

I have 10mm in the back and 12mm in front...haven't seen any issues yet, but I've only had them on for 3 weeks now. I am rubbing at the front a little though with stock tire sizes so I ordered the new fender liners..hoping that fixes it.

On the attached pic imagine that the spacer is not flat against the mating surface of the hub because the flange is preventing it from seating all the way.
