Spacers

[ALX5]

I am thinking about purchasing spacers for my 01 X5 3.0. I have searched the forums and found variety of thickness 10 mm-30 mm used by our members. I would like to have input from members who have spacers in their X. What did you have and what would you suggest. thanks

Im running 30mm H&R spacers in the rear and they are made very well. I have zero vibrations and have been using them for about 10K miles.

I also have 30mm H&R spacers in the rear with absolutely no problems at all.....

Are 30mm hard on hubs or bearings????

I think it really depends on the following as a whole:
- size of rims
- factory / lowered springs
- with/out fender flares

For my case, 15mm front and 25mm rear was the best for my set up



(275/45/20 front, 315/35/20 rear; 1" dropped, fender flare)

Good luck.

u have a 3.0 with what wheels? In my personal opinion I would do 15mm in the rear and nothing up front

5mm front and 25mm rear with stock 19's and NO fender flares. sits perfect.

All pics and info in my thread HERE
