Would this look ReTaRdEd ?

Has anyone put spacers on the rear, stock (Sport) 18's on an E92 328xi ... I was thinking it might look good if the rear had a touch wider stance ... I dont think I'm going to 19's, so it got me thinking.

Thoughts ? Spacer sizes? Stupid?

I don't think it will look ReTaRdEd, however it will just be for aesthetic purposes, just like running a stagger set on a FWD car.

Without lowering your car, yes. It's going to look like a Monster Truck.

you'll probably want to drop it and then add spacers.

Save your money to get rims & suspension. No use wasting your money on spacers that you'll eventually get rims on.
