I noticed that in Quickburns pics. I’d go down to 10mm in the rear.

I did 12/10 on F10 M5 and it was perfect. 12 on the rears works too but a little more aggressive.

I did 15 on front and 12 on rear. I think it's the perfect setup.

I’ll be moving up to 295’s in the rear which is 1/2” wider than 285’s. That would mean 1/4” or 6mm additional width on each side of the wheel. Would that translate to needing 6mm spacers to get the same affect as 12mm’s running 285’s? Thoughts?

I think I'm going 12mm front and 10mm rear. The 19's have a taller and wider tire and I think the rear will stick out with anything bigger than 10mm

Being awd, you will now get more rock chips on the fenders/door.
Eh, who cares? Lease it and dump it. And just have it detailed occasionally. Going to be a DD anyway, I don't mind a few rock chips.
Correct like the post says I have 12mm front and rear and get rock chips at the front doors and rear panels from both the front and rear wheels.
Every time I detail the car they come right off with no issues. However if your OCD about the car I would not do any spacers without a protective film.

Yesterday , I put the rear tires 285 at the front and behind I put the 295/35 I think it's perfect now.Of course michelin that for their more square shape, perfectly fit the rims in these sizes.

I dont think there are any for the F90 that are hubcentric. They are too short and the oem snout doesnt fit inside the spacer housing.

Im running 15F and 12R and its pretty spot on with just a little bit of inward tuck

Thanks. Looking for a link to purchase though. Supreme says only 12 & 15 mm will work. I've been looking for 10 and/or 8 mm. 11mm May work.

for 1mm I would just go the Supreme route. They are local to me and I have used their spacers on these cars in the past with zero issues:

Their website is kinda backdated, you can just call them and ask for Matt or Eric.

Already spoke to Eric and have a set of four 12mm's on the way. Just looking to see if there's any 10's or 8's out there.

Nasty - did you get your spacer on by chance? I'm curious as to what you think regarding sizes for the comp.
