11MM Spacers Installed PICS

j2m · 09-04-2011, 03:54 PM

My car is a 2011 335i X-Drive on Dinan Stage 2 Suspension with HRE P40S 19X9 (Square) with Pirelli 255/30/19's. Because they are a square set-up the rear wheels were not flush enough. I just installed 11MM spacers on the rear wheels. Below are pictures of the before and after.
I think the rears are out far enough now, but want some feedback.
1st PIC is before
2nd PIC is after 11MM spacers

Nice - those look spot on size wise!

hipnotic · 09-04-2011, 03:56 PM

SeanS54 · 09-04-2011, 03:57 PM

Looks like 1st pic has the spacers

Higgs1 · 09-04-2011, 04:18 PM

looks sharp, nice!

j2m · 09-04-2011, 04:51 PM

Weird on my computer the first pic is without spacers but on my iPhone it's the second pic

Looks like you could've fitted a 15 mm spacer in there. Looks better with them than without though.

N54CoupeHP · 09-05-2011, 02:15 AM

More pics please!

Tee212 · 09-05-2011, 02:20 AM

needs like 2 more inches of wheel width not spacers lol

15mm wouldn't be proper fit. . . 20mm would get fender rub AKA perfect fitment

Looks great man! You got to come out to one of the meets to show off those HREs

Olagüe · 09-05-2011, 04:08 AM

nicee

EYE4SPEED · 09-05-2011, 08:00 AM

Can you throw the 11's on front and go with 15's on the back?

kcgman · 09-05-2011, 08:11 AM

Okay. I admit it. I can't tell the difference between the two pictures. What am I supposed to be seeing?

I might try 15's. I think I'll need to roll my fenders for sure!

For sure, I'll try to make it to the next one. Do you know when it is?

Not sure, the front's are out pretty far already... but I can sure try it. Thanks

The pic of the rear wheel, before the spacers, were tucked into the car more. With the spacers they wheels stick out further. It very subtle. Like 1/2" or so.

Bimmerologist · 09-05-2011, 02:08 PM

Very nice ride!! Love the wheels!

AddictedToBavarian · 09-05-2011, 04:14 PM

I see a difference, but I would definitely go with like 20.

sickem · 09-05-2011, 04:18 PM

looks great. it's a subtle, easy mod that makes a big difference. I did 15mm on my rears and 10 in the front on my E90.

remmib · 09-05-2011, 06:17 PM

That helped a lot.

But I've never heard of 11mm spacers?
And couldn't you have ordered the rear with a lower offset than the front?

brocklanders · 09-05-2011, 09:39 PM

i like it, i wouldnt change it. 4mm woulndnt even be noticable, not worth spending extra money on.

flip4335 · 09-05-2011, 10:47 PM

Do you know the offset of your HREs? From there, you could determine the size spacers you would need to make your rears flush.

Just sayin'

OBTW, the spacers made a real difference. Not as tucked in as the first pic. However, you do have room for a more aggressive setup!

GL and let's see some more pics when you are finished.

rayguy24 · 09-06-2011, 12:14 AM

Go with 15's!

kcgman · 09-08-2011, 10:42 AM

Ah, now I see it. Nice.
