Spacer Question

[bmwstve]

Hi

I used the "tape method" to measure the spacer size needed.

However I got 2 results.

If I measure from the upper part of the sidewall the result is 30mm

if from the middle part it is 25mm

So what spacer size should I get?

Really want that WIDE STANCE.

I thought the wider the stance the better the stability/handling?

and of course better looks!

It's not the same as getting wider wheels with a better offset. Your suspension is designed to work on load through the hub, not on load through something sticking 25-30mm lateral to it.
