nice setup on the wheels and coilovers. how low did you set the front and rear? is it one finger gap or less?

I finally gave up trying to fit the et20 rears, went back to et23, now zero rub even fully loaded. I may try going back to et21 with some spacers in the future but we'll see.

As far as the drop, it's zero gap but also no tuck at the moment. Might go a little bit lower though.

Thanks guys. Glad I finally got rid of the rubbing!

Very nice! I nearly went with the 111's before finding my DPE's, cars like yours makes me have second thoughts! Love the color btw.

so that means you have 10mm spacers in the rear.

Yessir took the 19x9.5 et20's off and put on some 19x9.5 et33 with 10mm spacers

gotchuckz · 07-22-2012, 01:20 PM

what about the front 19x8.5 et35? any spacers?

RicheyBMW · 07-22-2012, 01:25 PM

5mm spacers in front. I had 10mm spacers up front on the old car, but with the new ST V1's it's lower and 10 just seemed to aggressive for the sad plastic fenders on the e92.

In these pics 5mm spacer in the front, none in the rear (19x9.5 et20)

However, the rear rubbed like shit. So now I'm running 19x9.5 et33 with a 10mm spacer for en effective offset of et23.

I think I can go down to et21 with a12mm spacer, but for now et23 is fine as it doesn't rub at all.

Nice,so I have in the 19x9.5 also but the et is 38 so on the 09 u think I can go with 12mm spacer with no rubbing,and in the front I have 8.5 et 35 what u think,what the et on ur front? I havent drop my yet,but when I do it, it wont be much I will do h&r or eibach with bilstein.

gotchuckz · 08-06-2012, 02:36 AM

IF you have an e92 you could do a 12mm spacer and not rub at all, that would give you an offset of 26 - plenty of room there, you could probably go 15mm with just a roll.

Wheels are holding up fine - my old set had a few chips though.

LTBMW spacers ( I dunno if they're branded or if they mill them themselves.
