THE ULTIMATE BMW F80 M3 & M4 F82/F83 SPACER GUIDE FOR BEST FITMENT

[@MySkyisClear]

This channel will make anyone feel confident about owning a BMW. The shots and details in this video are fantastic!

[@E9JMX]

12 front & 15 rear is perfect

[@Rayzor1502]

12f and 15r looks the best 😁

[@rafailagheorghita]

4:32 just perfect! perfect! 10+ for this way to show and compare!

[@kamikazei]

Loved the multiple camera angles (seeing the frame-by-frame size comparisons was really informative). Great video, IMO one of the best vids you've put out in the past little while. I agree that 15 (FR) and 20 (Rear) is the nicest. But I'd be worried about rubbing too.

[@biggboi1967]

I have 12 in the front and 15 in the rear on F30, and the fitment is on point. Thanks, Brian for putting this together for your subscribers. This shit is a lot of work.

[@inf187]

I can't emphasize how much I appreciate this kind of content. I have a 2017 F82 comp package and this channel and a few others are my go-to's before I do anything to my car. Thanks so much for the concise videos.

[@jpbredenkamp5091]

Personally like the 20 and 20mm front and rear! Looks great Brian, thanks for the video

[@hevendranarayansamy2793]

Yeah I'm with you. 20 all round

[@ramalusubov7623]

With the 20mm in the front it rubs on the bumper really bad. So better go with 12.5mm on the front and 20 for the rear.

[@davidsmallridge832]

What are the positive/negative consequences, in handling, from the installation of the spacers?

[@llkjjjss]

Best comment

[@5tmvgy4k]

Yep agree. Wod be good to hear what the effect of each is on handling. Plus you could get to use the DJI as chase-plane 👍😎, win win.

[@kamilm4656]

With bigger spacers on the back car will understeer a lot easier because more grip from the rear

[@GimliTehDwarf]

For me 15mm spacers all around made my car feel more planted in turns. Also what Imon mentioned can be solved easily with throttle.

[@Peanutdenver]

Your suspension is set up for the designed wheelbase and /track/width/etc, so it won't perform as designed optimally. But for street use it won't make a huge difference unless you go crazy with your spacer width. Track days are a bit different, but all relative to how much wider you're going without making the proper suspension changes for the spacers you've added.

[@damion2449]

The details of this video makes your channel the best for F80 owners. I have referenced your videos before performing many upgrades on my F80 since I purchased it in 2017. I run 12 in the front and 15 rear, but installed them years ago.

[@jake_spence]

By far the best spacer video I've ever come across! The comparisons at 4:30 are perfect. Gonna have to get a set for when I'm rocking the 437M's.

[@jbrown7403]

I run 12mm in front and 10mm in rear on my F82 w/ 20” 666 wheels. Looks great and no real risk of rock chips. 👍

[@andrewng7110]

what brand spacers are you using. I have the same setup and want 12mm all around. Lowered on m performance has.

[@alfarrouq9756]

If you have the larger 19 inch rims on the f80 I did 12.5mm front and back and it aligned perfectly with the body without any rubbing. This is probably the best setup if you’re going to lower the vehicle as well.

[@Adam-ts8zf]

Akhi what springs you running?

[@GYATM3]

@@Adam-ts8zf yo did yo ever find out

[@heritage1550]

I run 12mm on the front and 10mm on the back on my M3 CS.

[@keebs_yo787]

My F80 is lowered on the M-performance HAS and 437M wheels with 12mm spacers on all four corners.

[@KilaByte33]

I'm on Eibachs, 437Ms as well and also running a 12 square setup, I wonder how far we could push them before things start making contact.

[@BosaFTW]

KilaByte33 I want to put the Eibach Pro Kit on my M4 and spacers and struggling between 12 on all four or 15 on all four. I don‘t want to mix things up like 12 front and 15 rear. Did you try 15 on all four? Really don‘t know what to do lol

[@legendgalaxy]

@@BosaFTW did you ever make a decision?

[@dion_the_entrepreneur]

15 all around looks clean with less concern for rubbing if lowering and tracking your car

[@ajleyco3264]

Dion Waller any issues with rock chips on side panels from 15mm front spacers?

[@shaid153]

The production of this video is really good

[@MrDrivingFaster]

Really helpful video where we can see all the options. I think with about 2.5 degrees neg camber the 20mm will be dope and with no rubbing, even with lowering springs

[@Just1MoreMod]

Killed it with the multiple angles!! 🤟🏼

[@ThePatrickBateman69]

Tbh 12.5 in front and 15 in rear is the perfect setup, you don't want too much in the front or else you lose that turning angle and feel, and 15 in the rear is the perfect amount of poke without looking absolutely comical

[@slicksvillage6920]

Will the car drive ok with spacers

[@Rmayrap]

this is the greatest spacer video i have ever seen, i would do 20mm rear and 18mm front for the perfect look. thank you guys

[@robhinze8626]

Awesome!! Thanks for taking the time to do this!! I have a set of 15s all around that I haven't put on yet, now I know I made the right choice!!

[@sufficetosay]

C Straley 1 second ago I put michelin 4S 305's on the back of my comp and it looks amazing. Way better than using spacers imo and better meat on the ground for traction. The gap is super small to the bottom of the wheel well and the stance is just sick. I was worried the handling might be compromised but exactly the opposite is what happened. Best cosmetic decision so far other than a rear spoiler.

[@johnnylima784]

Great video. Wish I had watched this before I made my choice.Would have made things much easier! I went with KW 12,5mm all round and am very happy with my choice. Nothing too aggressive and zero fender rubbing, even lowered with the BMW HAS kit. Question: Is a wheel alignment required after fitting spacers?i’ve always wondered?

[@tommy.m4]

Hi Bryan, I‘m using a 10mm Eibach Pro Spacer Kit in the front and rear and a Eibach Pro Kit of lowering springs 20/20 on my 2018 M4 Competition but it stands on M666 Wheels. Best Greetings from good old Germany 🇩🇪 and keep it up, Tommy

[@vollcare4076]

Tommy M4 is 10mm allowed on the rear? It’s not on F20 chassis!

[@rdhunterx]

Love your videos! Thanks for educating our community and I personally appreciate the knowledge!

[@StreetDrivenDaily]

I run 20 in front on hr red lowering springs. And 15 in rear on my f82. No rubbing what so ever. With passengers, Oem wheels and tires. Love the look.

[@ajleyco3264]

DailyDrivenTurbo any issues with rock chips on side panel from a 20mm front spacer?

[@cmlf80m36]

Just ordered 15mm front and rear, great video Brian

[@BosaFTW]

Hey mate. How is your experience with 15mm front and rear? Did you lower the car? I want to do Eibach Pro Kit lowering and thinking about 12 front and rear or 15 front and rear.

[@ametelezkurtaj6133]

With 666 whels 15-20 its absolutely my choice thnx for video as always best explanation 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

[@f80corey]

I went with 12mm/12mm for my M666 wheels. Great video Brian. Thanks

[@johnnylima784]

Same here😃

[@johnnylima784]

Came out great

[@robertperez274]

literally was thinking about spacers! The best video!

[@slicksvillage6920]

What’s the benefit of having spacers?

[@romarioviegas5040]

For looks…

[@alextsang7858]

Do you need to roll fender for using 15mm all around?

[@Izzyspeeds]

How is the rubbing on 20s all around on stock suspension?

[@SimplyCarThings]

Such good content you guys never fail to impress! 🔌🔥

[@RodClinard]

Huge help. Especially about needing a wheel stud conv. Great vid!

[@jendersonpen7175]

I have 20mm spacers front and rear from burger tuning. On 19” stock 437 wheels, car was driving straight and first then I had to get an alignment took the guy 3 tries on and off the lift to perfect the camber, caster, toe and make the stereo wheel straight but I’m good now lol

[@KiesMotorsports]

Nice! It was a little too aggressive for me, but it looks good!

[@kedde1]

How much would you recommend to lower an F82 M4 when running original 19" wheels and planning on adding 15/20mm spacers- Tyre size is 255/35 front and 275/35 rear

[@M4chingy]

If I was gonna put Michelin PSS 295/30/19 on rear, do I need spacers? Thank you

[@marsdahustler]

20/20 best combo

[@Jy908]

Are spacers normally used for oem wheels? Do aftermarket wheels require spacers for better fitment as well?

[@dinosoarskill17]

Fantastic video. Do you know if running spacers will cause more wear on the hub?

[@TheSundaeDrive]

another great video that makes answering customer questions easy :)

[@rajahfl]

Great video!! I've been looking for a video like this for a long time. I have an F93 and I run 15s in the front and 12s in the rear. I'm afraid the 12s in the rear might rub a little but not sure. Can you tell me if you think 12s in the back is ok and if wheels spacers would cause high speed vibration?

[@Kieoryy]

I run 12s all around on my f82 and it’s literally PERFECT gang💯🤌🏿no problems rubbing or having to worry about ANYTHING

[@Urban_atelierbyabe]

What does spacers do for a vehicle? I've never used them before, ever.

[@collinrausch1362]

FATHEROFNATIONS they just have the tires poke out more and give it more of a stance

[@florinflo2531]

Awesome as always 🫶🫶

[@robyoung9267]

Brian, Great video.!..Do you need to have the car Aligned after installing any size spacers? Or did anyone have to Aligned your car as well?

[@MaRaChan7]

what tire size tire was the rear and fronts?

[@frankjdm4636]

Thanks will be doing the 15Front and 20Rear 👍 Love the Aggressive Look

[@AbletonLiveTechs]

did you do it? i did 15 front and 20 in back and idk the front seems little too bulky imo

[@lilhotdog7011]

This is actually a dope ass video. Like one of my favorites. I’ve been looking for this info.

[@technopro-kz4xv]

The best look is with 15mm front and 20mm rear 😃👍 absolutely on point.

[@RoRo-oh1td]

Good video, I have a 2017 f80 lowered on H&R Super Sport Springs and running a 12mm spacers front and rear.

[@jd14610]

M4 convertible. 12 & 12. H&R Sport Springs. Does not rub, even with 4 adults inside.

[@4baggin]

Isn’t the m3 rear fender slightly wider than the m4 ? So maybe 12’s all around for m4 ?

[@Kbltgamers]

What is the name of the color? It looks great!

When is the video of f30 spacers coming out?

Any issues with rubbing ??? With 20 front and 20 rears??? Im very concered i run the stock 19” wheels and tires with stock suspension.

[@stacky512a]

i put 12 front and 18 rear on my F02. Stock suspension

[@linasdailide3269]

Definitely need to specify what brand/size tyres your running. I have Re-71r, 265/35/19 F and 285/35/19 R with 12mm spacers all around and have rubbing on the front. OEM 437’s

[@williamwilson5125]

U need to go to a 255/35/19 on the front and you will be good. Thats what I run. No rubbing at all. 12mm spacer

[@aklol7384]

Hi I have an BMW x6 2008 model I went to install a range rover alloys so I have everything sorted jut need long bolts because I'm using wheels spacers 20mm where can I get the long conversation bolts? many thanks for the video

[@RabidWeaselz]

I run 12mm front and 10mm rear on my F80. Going too big risks rock chips even with Tommy's flaps. Thanks for the vid!

[@quanbaldwin3610]

Just giving credit where do you guys knock this video out the park great content keep up the good work and I'll continue to watch who won the 500 bucks🤔

[@vollcare4076]

Why do you want to install wider spacer on the rear than on the front? Why not equal sizes or bigger ones at the front?

[@AdrianSinner97]

you guys are gold. period.

[@electropalsceo]

Great video 12/15 was the best look for me

[@kraftsoundmotorsport9748]

Very good video. Now I know with what to go on my M4. Thanks for the work.

[@prizetaker]

Perfect timing for this vid Truly thankful 🙌🏽

[@weaseltown]

Are the B16 coilovers all the way down in the front?

[@timsmith8242]

does this mess with your handling and does it cause any vibrations at high speed?

[@thesimpleonel2391]

If you buy quality ones they shouldn't do anything noticeable in terms of performance i have 10 in the back and i went up to 220kmh/137mph and there were no problems

[@redcollins2]

It should not effect handling if you buy hub centric spacers and don’t go thicker than suggested.

[@Keesquivel0315]

Are the 666Ms the same offset as the 437?

[@josephbowie8284]

Hey Brian where are you guys located at and do you all sell the spacers and the upgraded bolts for a 2018 M4 competition can I bring the car to you and have all of that installed?

[@KilaByte33]

Your tire is too tall, I had rubbing with my winters since like a dummy I left the spacers on. You either go to 35s or try a 10 MM spacer maybe? I'd personally do 35s

Hi Brian I currently have on 20s on 225/30 with H&R Super Sport Springs which size spacers would you recommend.

[@TheMLGSkippy]

need a video explaining which engine oil is best to use in an f80 m3 slightly modded 5w-30,0w-30,0w-40,5w-40 and which oil liqui molly, oem, or motul

[@BosaFTW]

The best depends on your needs and how you drive. If you really punch your engine in the face and change oil every 10.000km I recommend you Ravenol RCS 5W40. It is a extreme high quality oil, everybody says it in forums. You can also run a 10W40 or 5W50 when living in hot countries. NEVER USE 0W30 if you drive your car fast!!! Also I wouldn‘t use 0W40. Too liquid and the additives destroy too fast. You need a solid ground oil and this is what you get by choosing a higher number before the W. 5W or 10W all the way. Only if you live in Alaska or Canada with hard minus degrees freezing cold then choose a 0W40

[@forsurejigga]

15F/18R is the best fitment imo!

[@mus4ddiq]

Great content! I had 12mm all around on my M3 666m wheels. Dropped on Kw has kit
