The BMW E30 wheel spacers are designed for functionality and cosmetics. Since wheel spacers essentially move the wheel center closer to the hub assembly, they enlarge the track widths. A wider track improves handling characteristics. By enlarging the contacting points, tires can generate increased lateral grip. This can improve cornering speeds and stability.
In addition, widening the track gives your car a sporty and powerful look. The effect is most pronounced with larger wheels and tires. With proper wheel spacers, you can add more inner wheel clearance to prevent bigger rims or wider tires from rubbing against fenders, shock absorbers, and other suspension parts. But what sizes of BMW E30 wheel spacers are the best? In this post, we’ll examine the safe sizes and some pro tips.
Best BMW E30 Wheel Spacers Size Chart
The best BMW E30 wheel spacer size depends mostly on your personal preferences and desired modifications. Here are the pros and cons of each size:
- 3mm to 10mm: If you want to fit a big brake kit without significantly altering the wheel offset, these thin wheel spacers are the best option. They create proper clearance while keeping the OEM-like style.
- 12mm to 20mm: If you would like a better wheel stance, 12mm to 20mm spacers are more suitable. They enhance the handling, particularly when cornering.
- 25mm to 50mm: If you like a more aggressive stance, you can use 25mm to 50mm wheel spacers with a wide-body kit. They help reduce body roll, which in turn leads to more comfortable driving.
Correct Offset:
The BMW E30 wheel spacers reduce the offset. For example, if the BMW 3 Series E30 stock wheel offset is +30mm, then a 15mm spacer will make the final offset +15mm. The wheels and tires will sit out 15mm from the hub assembly, providing a wider wheel stance.
Bolt Pattern (PCD):
Only the bolt patterns that match can you achieve a proper wheel fitment. Therefore, it’s crucial to find the right dimensions for your car before shopping for a new set of wheel spacers. For example, BMW 3 Series E30 (1982-1994): PCD=4x100mm, CB=57.1mm, Thread=M12x1.5mm.
