LM bue E90 LCI with spacers and drop..

Manboy · 05-14-2011, 08:59 AM

Just installed these Macht Schnell spacers i got from European auto souce.
Car is lowered on H&R sport springs.

Spacers:
05mm front
10mm rear

No fender rolling and no rubbing. I have another set of 12mm comming for the rear as there is still some room left to push the wheels out further.. I'll leave the front as is.

Thanks to David at EAS for sorting me out

Looks awesome. I love the finish on those 193. Amazing.

Perfect imo!

Craig@SupremePower · 05-14-2011, 11:16 AM

very nice..

remmib · 05-14-2011, 11:28 AM

Looks great.

I'm a total noob to stance, fitment, etc. What do spacers do? Do they extend the wheels outward so the tires are farther apart? It looks more aggressive from the back it seems.

Yes, they sits between the wheels and the hub, making the wheel fitment more aggressive.

Are you sure about that, even with a drop and without rolling the fenders?

I'm not so sure. 15mm is a lot on the LCI.

chris b. · 05-15-2011, 10:58 AM

i have 15mm in rear. no drop, no roll, no rubbing.
even with h&r sports it only rubbed a little...

MPI_Jack · 05-15-2011, 04:00 PM

Nice car

JayAr-E90 · 05-16-2011, 06:18 AM

whats the ride like?

Manboy · 05-16-2011, 06:53 AM

Ride is more or less the same, maybe the handling has improved a little in corners, it also turns in sharper for some reason...

JayAr-E90 · 05-16-2011, 04:50 PM

h&r springs right? how long did you go?

Manboy · 05-17-2011, 02:33 PM

Thats right, H&R springs. What do you mean by "how long did you go?"

r3zon8 · 05-18-2011, 09:40 AM

i think he meant how LOW did you go..as in how low was the drop. did you use the h&r sport or h&r race springs?

im about to pull the trigger on a set of spacers for my e92 LCI msport but i havent quite figured out the proper spacing to buy. 12mm-front/15mm-rear seems to be the popular setup
