Had a look at putting spacers on the rear yesterday , done the plumb up from tyre and it's in line with my inner arch ! But if I look at rear of car looks like I could be doing with them , is it possible to put 15 mm on so tyres are in line with outer arch ? Help Please I'm a golfer ! !

Hey mini, read the first post of this thread, I have 20mm on the rear and 12mm on the front. Mine has been lowered slightly before I got it. What size wheels and tyres are you running?

Hi mini, my car is on 225/45x17 on the front and 245/40x17 on the rear and my wheels are the "Double Spoke" pattern. I'm not too sure about the offset though to be honest.
Hope this helps you.

Tony.

ps. If you go for some spacers make sure to get the "Hubcentric" type.

Cheers tony , yeah you said to me before about hubcentrics im on it ,, just feel back end needs filled up/ out if you get me , and I dont have a clue what to do ! Ha patients is a virtue

Yeah, but thought I'd tee it up see where it'd go and how far, see it did get a fairway on. JIM

@mini, you'll soon learn not to put wording like " just feel back end needs filled up" or you'll awaken BMG Resident rear specialist extraordinaire!

This looks great, I bought these exact wheels last night and have the same spec z3 as you! Sorry I didn't intentionally copy haha. A little worried about direct fitment due to the rear offset. Did you have these fitted without the spacers and was they fine? Cheers

It's not copying Jack, everyone buys potatoes don't they...
