Rear Spacers: No problems?
Hi -
I currently have 19X9.5 Offset et45 on my rears with 265/30/19s and planning to add 15mm Rogue Engineering spacers. Vehicle isn't dropped with Sport Package. You guys see any issues with doing so? Thanks in advance.

I have Rogue Engineering's 15mm spacers out back on my non-ZSP 325i. No issues to report. Immediately after installing them, I thought the car felt a little bit more lively at the helm (rotationally speaking), something I never noticed before. Not sure if its my imagination. Subsequent adjustments in air pressure has neutralized the car's attitude in general.

No rubbing issues at all! Even if you drop it with H&R "Sport" Springs or Eibach "Pro-Kits". Post before and after pics!

However I have 275/35/18 tires, which are 10mm wider and 8mm taller than your 265s. Maybe the difference is enough to make it not rub for you. |

Rear spacers installed. Happy? You betcha.
Had the RE 15mm spacers installed on the rears today. Yeah!
Pictures don't really do it justice, but I think it' was just enough to push 'em out to fill out wheel wells and widen the stance. Thanks to Golf, Nina and the rest of the GT-Concept team in LA/Glendale for the quick install. You guys are awesome!

No issues with them rubbing, so didn't have roll fenders. Let us know how your 335 turns out!
