2011 335i e92 Xdrive - what size spacers?

I have a 2011 e92 335i Xdrive with M-Sport package (193 rims).

What size spacers should I get for that flush look?

Anyone that has this style car with spacers, can you post up some pics.

Thanks!

I'm also looking for information on dropping my car as well. Pics and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if the X drives are any different from the I's in the rear ... but on my M sport E92 w/ 193Ms, I used a 15mm spacer in the rear and it worked perfectly, bringing the end of the wheel flush with the fender.

I have since moved to 19s and am now rubbing, though. So if you plan to go with 19s in the future, I'd stick to 10mm or 12mm.

I have similar set up (2010 E92 335i Xi-drive M-sport with 193M wheels) and received a lot of great adive from others on the e90 forum and decided to go with 15mm macht schnell spacers in the rear..and 10mm in the front (12mm would fit as well) with a KW V1 drop. No rubbing. I cant get to the computer where my photos are bfor if you search for some of my previous postings ....you should be able to find some recent pics.

If you plan on doing a drop; they you need to see where the spacers will fit. I personally like the "tuck" look into the fender. It's simply a matter of personal taste.
