Question MY 2012 M - Wheel spacers question



Looking to space out the front and rear so that they are flush with the fenders. I am lowered on Eibachs. How would I go about knowing what size MM I need? Do I measure it or does someone know a proper size that will do the job but won't let me rub on the stock 20s. Thanx in advance.

you can put 20mm spacers in the rear and still have room, 20mm in the fronts... you can probably work with 25mm too.

Eibachs did crap for me so I wound up w/ my BC Racing Coilovers and regret ever just doing the springs, kept my smooth luxuriuos drive too on the BC's

I looked on BC racing site but didn't see M37 listed. Also, do you know if they fit AWD?

Is that the OEM black grill or a custom paint job?
