ECS Tuning wheel spacers?


#1

http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E30-325i-M20_2.5L/Search/Wheel_Spacer/Anyone have experience with the ECS Tuning wheel spacers? they have a 20% off deal right now. $60 for a pair. Thinking of getting the 12.5mm. Are H&R that much better for the money? Also looks like H&R is either too thin(5mm) or too thick (15mm)

I can’t tell you anything about ECS spacers, but judging from the pic they are hubcentric and that’s key. As you probably know, 12.5mm is about as thick as you can get and stay w/in the rules. You’ll need to roll your fenders a little. That might not be apparent until you put your car sideways.

I actually had a local machine shop make me custom ones for 25$ a piece. They’re hubcentric and I had them made to use my 17x7.5 wheels with larger than factory center bores. I think it’s best if you run them a little thicker in back. I’d say measure front and back. Anyway I’d say the ECS ones look better. Just my opinion based on the price, available sizes and looks. My custom ones have held up fine for ten years and they are probably made out of whatever aluminum the machine shop had laying around.

These are my 5x120 spacers. Sorry no 4 lug ones yet.
