Calling Spacer Masters!

Hi guys, I got some 15mm spacers coming. Can I run these on the Front wheels of an e92?

Wheels are 17in x 8in 34ET with 225/45 tires.

Thanks!

You should be okay but always be safe and measure first. You don't want to install them and your rubbing.

Haha, oh boy. I don't think my tires would even hit the inside. I'm just on stock sport suspension.

There is a chance it will rub, but its worth a try. If it rubs you could always remove the camber pins and add around -1 degree of camber up front.

Just wanted to let you guys know, the 15mm worked fine up front, no rubbing.

Thanks for the help!
