M550 wheel spacers - optimal size?
I have a 2018 M550I that is completely stock. I am considering installing wheel spacers when I look at the car from the rear or rear angles I noticed the rear wheels especially seem slightly sunken in and I believe the car would look better if the rear wheels and front wheels were pushed out just a little bit.
Just from my visual estimation I'm thinking maybe 10 mm definitely nothing extreme I'm curious if any of you have purchased wheel spacers for a stock vehicle that is not lowered and had pictures.

Thinking I'm regretting going small up front and kinda want to move my 15mm to the front and get 18mm or 20mm for the rear. But I'm going to drive on it for a month or so and then decide, though likely will just be lazy and keep these as is. Hope this info and pictures help! |

I was quite conservative with 10mm front and 13mm rear due to the fact that the scrub angle and suspension arm moments start to get screwed up with bigger spacers.
It has improved the stance to the degree I wanted, however tight turns with a lot of steering lock dont feel great. I think the front toe and camber settings should be tweeked to compensate now. |
