BMW G80 M3 // Wheel Spacers and Stud Conversion Kit Install

In this video I'm walking through the process of converting my G80 to wheel studs, instead of the OEM lug bolts, with Motorsport Hardware black race nut kit. Also, I'm installing spacers from ‪@ecstuning‬ (12.5mm front and 15mm rear).
Great fit and finish for both products! Install was simple with no issues.

I got mine from wheel spacer store. Definitely makes a big difference in improving the stance.

[@legacydriven]

Nice, and yes it does! Noticeable improvement to the overall stance, look, and even handing (depending on other variables of course).

Thanks for the video, I just got ECS spacers in for my M4 today. Wasn't very fond of the lug bolts, so I may do the conversion too

[@legacydriven]

Absolutely! And I agree. The studs are a much better solution rather than oem lug bolts. It makes for an easier on/off with the wheels 👍🏼

Thank you for the video! I'm on the verge of going for the same setup. After doing my research, I'm concerned about potential rubbing issues with the front fenders. My G80 base is running on Pirelli P-Zero tires with stock height. Do you think the same setup is safe with 12.5mm + 15mm spacers? I'm considering between your setup and a 12mm + 15mm combo to ensure there's no rubbing in the front. What would you recommend? Also, how do you like the spacers after 10 months? Has there been any noticeable change in driving dynamics? Can you even tell the difference?

[@legacydriven]

Hey thanks for the support! Glad the video helped you! So if you’re on stock height with P Zero tires you should NOT rub at all with 12.5mm in the front at anytime. I had this same setup as you saw from the video for months with no issue. Once I lowered the car then I installed the fender liner enhanced clearance kit to allow more room to prevent rubbing. Additionally, 15mm in the rear looked amazing on stock height after I made this video. And I kept that setup for many months. But, when I lowered the car I ended up putting 12.5mm on the rear as well since the gap in the rear was a little too tight for my preference. It would rub on high speed bumps etc. It looked really aggressive, but function is very important to me. But for your current setup, 12.5mm front and 15mm rear will look amazing on stock height 👊🏼👊🏼

[@legacydriven]

To add, I still have these spacers on as of now. They’re amazing and I’ve had zero issues. These are really good quality spacers which is why I chose them. It does widen the stance of the car so handling is slightly improved on aggressive cornering etc. Just make sure you install them correctly as safety is paramount here. 🤝

Awesome video man. Do you have the link to the exact stud conversion kit and wheel spacer you got from ECS tuning?

[@legacydriven]

Thank you! Absolutely. So the ECS spacer kit I actually ordered from Turner Motorsport. LINK > www.turnermotorsport.com/p-1105882-ecs-g80-flush-kit-front-and-rear/ Then the Motorsports Hardware Stud Conversion kit came from Kies Motorsports.

[@yano_sgg80m3]

Nice video. I have to change mine every year cause the rust. I also used the Motorsport ones. I guess PNW problems with all rain. I’m trying the MMR ones from iND to see if it will last longer.

[@Top_g80comp]

Another fantastic video 💯🤘……. Do you have any vibrations at higher speeds?

[@legacydriven]

Thank you! 🤘🏼 and no I do not. I’ve had this setup over 110mph (so far) with zero vibration felt in the cabin. A BIG factor with people experiencing spacer vibration is not having them flush or “seated” on the hub. This can cause big vibrations.

What size socket are you using?

[@legacydriven]

17mm thin walled

@@legacydriven I ordered it early by just looking at the color! Thanks to you I'll be able to install my spacers and studs without having to pay a shop!
