Hey Folks,

New BMW i3 owner here and I am looking to get some spacers to make the tires sit more flush with the fenders. I plan on doing 20mm on each side in the rear like many suggest, but from what I've been reading, the spacing on the front is up for debate. Some say 15mm but others say 15mm puts the wheel past the fender. Does anyone have any insight into what the actual recommended spacer size for the front wheels is for a flush fit? I have the 20" 430 wheels and I heard that could make a difference.

Cheers,

Kippy
 
I put 15mm spacers on front and back for my 2019 Rex. They did NOT stick out past the fenders. Was actually thinking of going to 20mm, then I went in a different direction. Ended up putting after market wheels, 18x7.5's, on it with 215 tires on front and 235 tires on rear. Had to redo the spacers entirely but that's comparing apples to oranges since the new rims had different offset than original.
