Ive noticed that the xdrive has a square set up with the same 18x8in ET34 all around. The 435i I have is RWD with the same wheels up front but 18x8.5 ET 47 in the rear. The rears stick out according to calculations 0.04 inches more. Almost unnoticeable for offset stuff and spacers wise but good info incase you see a different tire size in the rear.
My 435i M Sport came to me with chassis/engine struts to stiffen the handling. I increased it further with a change from the poor performance (less tread life, poor handling, longer braking distances) "run flats" with traditional 150 mph speed rated Michelin Pilot Sport 225x45 ZR18 tires/custom wheels, plus the spare tire/jack/lug wrench that was missing from my car.) I could immediately feel the improvement difference in the handling, braking, etc. Why own a 150MPH car if you don't have tires that are rated to run safely at 150MPH?
The ride is solid. Once they're seated correctly you don't notice them much. The car does feel a little more planted but you really have to pay attention to notice imo. I'm really happy with the 15mm fr and 20mm rr tho.
Yup! In my research wheel spacers are fine. It’s the diameter of the wheel that could mess with your xdrive. Wheel spacers won’t impact the diameter. However feel free to look into it further!
So helpful though we needed some footage far-away from the car.
Hey good point! I've had them on for a little bit now. Maybe I'll do a follow up video with my thoughts and include some more footage of it
@@ayyyman_ please do

So helpful men, im currently building a f30. Thank you for this! Btw what torque wrench did you use ? Acdelco?
Nice video 👏
Thank you bro!
Will this do any bad effect for the long run ,?
No they shouldn’t as long as they’re installed correctly and even on both sides
Hows the ride. Was looking at 12mm fr 15mm rr

@@ayyyman_ thanks for the reply! 🙌🏾 might consider going that route
Looks nice, do you get more dirty on the body now around the outside of the wheel well?
Thank you! And heard that will happen but tbh I haven’t noticed it. I also got the car ceramic coated so it’s been easier to clean
Did you have to roll your fenders? I hear they run after 15mm
Nope I didn’t roll them. But I’m on stock suspension right now so I’m guessing that’s why
The rear wheels come out of the body, this way they are really ugly, a 12mm or 15mm spacer would have been better instead of the ones you put 20mm.
Since this video I took them off and put aftermarket wheels but I loved the 20mm spacers. To each their own :)
do you have an xdrive?
Yup! In my research wheel spacers are fine. It’s the diameter of the wheel that could mess with your xdrive. Wheel spacers won’t impact the diameter. However feel free to look into it further!
