Spacers
I put 12mm H&R spacer on the rear, nothing on the front. The car is lowered on H&R. I did about 125mph and i felt shimmying on the rear. Like the car wanted to lose control. Is this because theres a wider stance on the rear when the front is suppose to be wider(factory)?. Should I put a 12mm on the front so it can be like the car is back at factory specs or just take the spacer off on rear

Check the spacers. I have a similar setup and have never experienced what you're describing. Are you 100% sure they're for the M5 and have the correct specs?

+1...make sure you have quality spacers on the vehicle. #2, be sure that you keep a close eye on the track width of the car. Pushing the rears out 12mm and nothing on the front is definitely going to change handling. After running spacers with the stockies (12mm F/10mm R) If I were to do it again I'd run 10mm on all corners, max.
