I think 10 or 12.5 on all four corners is a really nice fit. 15s can rub on large compression. This is assuming you’re on factory sized rubber.

Will he require longer lug bolts with the spacers?

Indeed, he will. I’ve heard you can run up to a 5mm with regular lug bolts, but I wouldn’t try it. Heck, wven my 3mm Macht spacers came with longer bolts.

Thanks guys, I've got factory wheels and tire size right now, no plans to change at the moment.

I'd go 10mm all around. You can go up to 15mm in the front but I like the balance of 10 square and you don't have to worry about rubbing. Some people have had rubbing with 12.5mm in the rear.

Looking into FCAB and leaning towards going with the Z4M's. Looking to order off of ecs and was just wondering should i order just the bushing and reuse my lollipops or buy them already pressed in? Going to have my indy take care of them when i put in my FSDs so its not like ill be the one pressing them in. FYI part numbers are:
31107836862 , 31107836863 for pressed in

Last night my passenger door stopped operating from either inside or outside. The lock actuator is up. I'm going to into PA Soft looking for things to clear, but I'm wondering if there are other things I should be looking at or aware of...?

I always just get the whole thing for ease of installation... you'd probably want to check with you mechanic to make sure there is no additional labor charge for pressing them in...

That was one of the reasons I was considering them. Just checking. I’ll be ordering some more things so I’m sure I’ll have another question or two today. Thanks!
