Great vid. Did 10 n 12 mm spacers change the ride quality and or driving dynamic of the car at all? Thanks. I’m thinking of putting 10mm in front and 12.5mm in back of my Ftype but afraid they might effect ride. Thank you

Great video sir - one thing to note is to always use a torque wrench by holding the grip area at the end. If your hand is not there it will give you a different resultant torque. ❤

Hey I really dig your channel. I have a 2012 E63 and am looking at the best set up for fitment with the OEM wheels before purchasing new wheels (20s). I was going to get the 10mm all around, but am curious how yours rides with the 12.5mm and 10mm. I am considering lowering as well, but heard some complain about ride quality. Any insight you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Glad you like the channel! I spent a lot of time researching fitments. I saw people on forums use from 10 - 20mm, so I really didn't know which way to go. I came across the wheel spacer kit (kzbin.info/www/bejne/roPamKFqmtmtmck) and this helped me to figure out my perfect fitment. The 12.5mm and 10mm is working great so far. I don't know if it was just in my head, but it did feel "different" at first, but it's cool now. Car is great lowered - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIjIdneQaZmElcU

@@DriveTalkCars Hi Bro, I am having some issues with the H&R spacers fitting over the front hub. When I called ECS they stated their 12.5mm is not for front. It didn't seem like you had any issues with your ECS spacers fitting. I am assuming the hubs should be the same size on both 2010 and 2012 models

Love you video man! Rodney from Australia Down Under! You are very concise, clear and easy to understand and follow. Amazing video. I also have the same problem with the rear OEM wheel not fitting the standard Mercedes 66.6mm Hub Centric Hole size on the spacers I purchased off EBay that look almost exactly the same as the ones in your video. They too were too tight to fit! 😩👍

Well there will be rubbing if you are going fast into corner on not so smooth road. And then when you turn at the same time, probably will catch inner arch lip.

Only one thing. No point having a torque wrench if you don't use it properly. If you hold it forward of the correct point on the handle you're not applying the correct torque.

@6:10 I use them spacers on the civic with coupe twenty06 model, and having amg wheels isn't the issues. You were lied to. And your iffing it to others.. as if it's the wheels. And not the person that doesn't know anything , this happens increasingly everywhere from burger flipping to alignments to banks and schools. Just thought I let others know it isn't the AMG wheels. I use them on the coupe Civic . Yes I run 5*114 on 5*114.3 with a car hub size 64.1 and centric rings to fit these wheels 66.6 and I run the spacers. Those are not the right spacers. Period . Like how all the car parts are that we all buy at first.
