The BMW G80 spacers are helpful components in performance improvements. Since the tires are the only parts that contact the ground directly, they have arguably the biggest impact on a vehicle’s handling. By moving the wheels and tires out, these wheel spacers increase the track width. A wider track means more grip and better cornering. Once you increase the track width, you are actually improving vehicle performance.
Normally, 3mm to 12mm spacers are too thin to come with pressed-in wheel bolts. So, for a proper installation, you need longer wheel bolts for G80 spacers. This leads to another question: What size bolts do I need? This blog delves into the benefits, safety considerations, and best practices to help you make an informed decision.
Best BMW M3 G80 Spacers Size Chart
- 3mm to 10mm: Subtle changes. They provide enough space to clear big brake calipers. If you want to fit new wheels without significantly altering the wheel offset, then 3mm to 10mm BMW wheel spacers are the option.
- 12mm to 20mm: Medium-sized BMW G80 spacers are more popular for enthusiasts who want to achieve a perfect flush wheel stance. You can notice an obvious enhancement in the vehicle’s handling, particularly when cornering.
- 25mm to 50mm: More aggressive stance. They are usually used for specialized wide-body applications. By increasing the track width, these BMW 2-inch wheel spacers help reduce body roll, which in turn leads to more comfortable driving.
How Long Wheel Bolts Do I Need for G80 Spacers?
Simply, the 12mm spacers occupy about 12mm bolt thread which stops the OEM wheel bolts from engaging the full thread. On this basis, if the OEM wheel bolt length is 27mm and you get a 12mm wheel spacer installed, it is recommended to use 39mm bolts (stock bolt length + spacer thickness = required wheel bolt length). If you get aftermarket wheels installed, it is better to get new wheel bolts that are a little longer than those.
