When wheel spacer bolts fail...seen on FB.

"Anyone got any 20 or 30mm spaces? Bolt On Preferred? 5x120
Due to this happened today with my E91 with 20mm spacers with longer bolts!"

I saw this @hard top and had a similar thought about posting it up on here, so thanks. Think it's quite an interesting point for people to consider when fitting spacers! Also moved the post in to the performance section which is a better place than the banter section (which it isn't!)

Cheers

That's why you should get the correct bolts when fitting spacers, and that's why you should also tighten them to the correct torque figure too.
