largest spacer for the front of my 2007 E92 19x8.5 et35 w/235 tire

like the title says im looking to see what the largest spacer i can run on the front of my car without rubbing. im sitting on stock 328xi suspension and no plans to lower it. i am putting 235/35/19s on a 19x8.5 et35 wheel. the rear wheel/tire setup is 275/30/19 on 19x9.5 et33. the rear is going to poke almost 16mm more then the front so i just want to even it out a bit.

question is will i be safe running a 15mm spacer or play it safe with a 10mm? i really dont want to have any rubbing issues at all

thanks guys

joe

I'm lowered on H&R Sports with the same wheel/tire specs as you and I'm running a 12mm spacer. Only rubs when the wheel is fully cranked.

It also depends on the tire you get as some are more "square" than others which will play a big part. g'luck bud.

We have different wheel size, but same overall diameter & offset.
So I think you should be ok.

15mm spacers can be pulled off up front at stock ride height without an issue.
