Ben is really H&R delivering the 12mm and 15mm spacers with 43mm bolts?

Do we need an wheel alignment after applying the spacers?


Did you guys know about this recall????
https://bmw.oemdtc.com/368/wheel-bolts-safety-recall-19v-541-2019-bmw-x5-x7
For 11-15mm, H&R recommended 43mm shank.

H&R lug bolts sold separately.

No alignment needed after wheel spacer.
Asked because of this pdf from HR
Yea, US only offers 35, 43, and 50 shank.
And that's what listed on the US catalog.

This country regulations.........

but thanks Ben.

I will go for this 39 and 43, for some reason they have different thinks here in europe, and in switzerland are even worse, they check every mm before the approval.

Hey. You will need lowering spring.
So far I only seen Eibach that have it, but not available in the US yet.
Knowing how Eibach NA operates, it will take at least 1 year before they'll have it in the US.

Im looking for feedback from those who have installed spacers on their G05 X5.

I am very strongly considering getting these spacers with 12mm front and 15mm rear. I will have 22s 742 wheels with stock height.

Interested if with the 12 and 15mm spacers, if its really noticeable or is it barely visible / noticeable.

If its barely visible then might not be worth it, if its obviously noticebale but not extreme then thats what Im looking for.

Ive seen pics on this thread but more interested in direct feedback from thoise who have installed these.

Thanks.

When looking for spacers for my X6, I only had X5 pictures to work from. In the end I've gone 15mm F, 20mm R with my 21" wheels.

Before & after pics:

Good choice. Seems as if the X6 needs bigger spacers than the X5 to get the same look.

I was also considering to get 12/15 mm combo on my X6, but I'm still not sure what the regulations in Austria are (waiting for their email back).

If it's true that 15/20mm option would be needed on the X6 to make it look good, it would be great to know that before I actually install them. Do you have any more before/after pics you could share?

Also, which spacers did you use, do they come with the longer bolts?

I had the spacers from my G30 since 2017, so I can't recall the brands. And ALWAYS use longer bolts with spacers - that is extremely important.

I did have the 15mm on the back and nothing on the front for a while, it looked better than stock, but there was room for more so I ended up moving the 15mm to the front and putting the 20mm on the back.

This is 15mm rear, no spacer up front:

I agree - the rear could take 25mm or maybe 30mm if one wanted to go further. Personally, I didn't want to go wider than 20mm.

Perhaps not actually - from the back, it is close to the limit:

Thinking out loud here...would 20mm rear be too much with my 315/30 R22s?

The wheel width, tyre width and offset of the stock 21" wheel & tyre (which I have) and the stock 22" wheel & tyre is exactly the same, meaning either wheel sits in the exact same position within the wheel arch. So my results are exactly what you would end up with if they were 22".

Considering 12mm front and 15mm rear for my 45e with 22" M747 wheels.

Is it a no go for using for example 15mm both front and rear, i.e. a square setup?

Not for any reason other than aesthetics. The rears are visibly more pushed in than the fronts - having square spacers will just mean that the visual discrepancy is still there. If you don't mind that, then square spacers is fine.

OK, thanks, need to take a closer look, most probably better to stick with the initial 12/15 idea.
