windtendo · 02-19-2019, 04:58 PM

Sounds like some here are going for a pretty aggressive look...

Yes I test fitted 12mm all around of which is what HRE recommends on FF04's.....13mm will fit just fine.....will take pics once installed

Oem offsets for the front and rear 20" rims is ET28

FF04 21;
21x9.5 ET30 - 275/30/21 tires
21x10.5 ET35 - 295/30/21 tires

Eddyfig which HRE's are you getting?

Wow I had no clue, I'm going on my 12th set of HRE's and never used spacers. I guess since i always did 3 piece custom offsets.

I'm going with 21 inch classic 300's. I like buying the same wheel over and over 😂

Those are nice! I have the HRE 3 piece 19" C20's on the Lambo and love them....HRE is the best! ....Flowform FF04 are great for the daily beater M5 but they do need spacer adjustment.....I had the FF01 Flowform on the F10 M5 and it was a perfect fit no spacers

You should have a new habit.
Just show me a picture of the car that you like, and I'll provide you with the parts.

I've done 11/11, 12/12, 15/11, 15/12, 11/0, 12/0 spacers combo. So I've seen it all.

In the same vein,
10/10mm on F90 M5 with M550 XI springs will touch fender ?

Nope, you'll be good.

If I went 15f 12r with oem 20s and the m550 H&R springs would that work without rubbing or should I go a little more conservative

15/12 or 15/11 are perfect with M550 spring.

EDDYFIG · 02-24-2019, 09:27 PM

My 12mm front and 11mm rear with M550 springs is perfect right now.

Front FF04 21x9.5 ET30 – (Need 2mm spacer to match oem ET28)+13mm new spacer = 11mm wider than oem

Rear FF04 21x10.5 ET35 – (Need 7mm spacer to match oem ET28) + 13mm new spacer = 6mm wider than oem

13mm spacers installed on HRE FF04's

What do you guys think to bring stock Comp 20s (bi-tone) flush with the fenders?

ok

Is there still space on the front tires to put a bigger spacer like a 12.5 instead of a 5mm? Was thinking of going with those tires on a kw has kit. But I don't want it to rub.

Can someone help me with this , I have a 2020 M5C with 789 oem wheels, I'm about to order 12mm H&R spacers all around should I get them in silver or black ?

Don't matter, because your rotor is silver.

Unless if you have CCB, then black for sure.

mw9 · 11-21-2020, 07:31 AM

I have 12mm F/R

MiamiCarLover · 11-21-2020, 10:09 PM

I hate spacers. Never liked them and always wonder why people want them. I'm sure I'll get yelled at here for saying this but every time I put spacers on a car it disrupted the car. 😷

Mrbig · 12-09-2020, 07:22 AM

So
Best choice with stock comp wheels 12 fronts/10 mm rears on the spacers???
