Spacers without lowering?

I've combed through the threads but can't find what I was looking for. Anyone installed spacers on their m5c and kept the stock springs? If so pics?

Thanks!

Initially I had 12f, 10r. But the rear was sticking out too much outside the body of the car. I now have 12f and 5r. Which I think is perfect

I went with 10mm in front and nothing in back. It's not aggressive but looks clean .. if anything I'd do a max of 5mm in the rear but from factory it comes almost perfect back there. I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them

Thanks. I came across your post when I did a search. The front angles looked a little odd. I was hoping for better visuals.

Did it look good in person?

Yes, it looks good in person.
But, stance is personal preference.

For example, some of my X5 customers, they do like the wheels to poke out beyond the fender.
Some likes it a tad inside the fender.

I like it as flush as possible.

Here you go.

I put the rear fender rock guard. It can use the 5mm now. Without that the rear to be is just about perfect.

Front is 10mm spacers. Lmk if you need more pictures or a specific angle you want to see.
