E91 spacers 30mm

Just put 30mm spacers on rear, many people say it’s dangerous and many say it’s fine, what should I do, is it okay?

30mm is pretty aggressive. Dangerous because it can technically create a weak point (crappy spacer). Decent spacers that are fitted and fastened properly. Wouldn't worry about it.

Which ones did you use and how they look?

First I put the spacer on and tighten all 5 bolts in the disk original then put on the wheel and tighten bolts to the spacer

weak point because technically whats holding most of the load us the hub and not the studs. So getting far away from the oem hub it can be more '' dangerous''.

And worst of course if not hubcentric.

I highly recommend finding a set of wheels that have the offset number to achieve the look you want. Spacers add an element of failure and all the other points mentioned above.
