Wheel spacers on F30 - safe or not?

4 months ago· 17 posts

Want to run 15mm spacers on my F30 to make the wheels flush with the fenders. Are wheel spacers safe? Ive heard mixed opinions: - Some say they put extra stress on wheel bearings - Others say quality spacers (like H&R) are perfectly safe - Some countries dont allow them for road use Anyone running spacers long term? Any issues?

VRSF charge pipe is the most popular for a reason. Good quality, good price, fits perfectly. Just get it and stop worrying about the stock plastic one cracking.

Wheel spacers are safe IF you use quality hub-centric spacers with extended bolts or stud conversion. Cheap spacers without hub-centric rings put all the load on the bolts which can cause vibration and even bolt failure. I run 12mm front and 15mm rear on my F30 with H&R spacers and extended bolts. The fitment looks perfect and Ive had zero issues in 30k km.
