  • What spacers should I buy?

    Like the title says guys, I didnt know where to put this post, so I figured the wheel and brakes section would probably be ok. I m kind of on a time crunch here and need to see what size spacers I can use on my car. I have a set of 18" M-Pars for my E39 and would like to push them out a bit. Problem is I have no idea which size I must use. The wheels are 18x8j in front with 13 offset and 18x9.5j in rear with a 25 offset. I would like to have sit flush, not poke. So I was wondering if any of you guys could help me, based on that info, to determine what size of spacers do I need? The tires I plan to run are 215/35r18 in front and 235/35r18 in rear. I plan to order the spacers tomorrow and mount my tires this weekend, so if any of you could offer any help or advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks guys....

    p.s. if you need more info, please let me know. Thanks

    put the tires on and then just stack washers until you get the fitment you want. Then measure the washers thickness and order the closest spacers to that.

      What I did was I got everything mounted first, then did my measurements from there. It's pretty hard to tell because some brands of tires run narrower or wider than others.
