KSX5 is on a distinguished road
Spacers recommendation - X5 E70 on BMW R21 wheels?

Hello,

I'm looking to improve the looks of my X5 E70 4.8i by installing spacers front and rear. I am looking for aggressive look but not too overdone... At the end of the day it is a personal preference, but I would like to know what you've done on yours (a picture would be much appreciated). Especially if you're on similar wheels as mine.

My wheels are: BMW Style 128 R21
Fronts: 10x21 et40
Rears: 11.x21 et42

And is it true that spacers 25mm and more should be first mounted on the hub and the wheel on spacer? Sizes below 25mm goes directly just with larger bolts, correct?

Thanks

Correct, spacers 25mm or more first bolted to the hub. 20mm and less is bolt through.
