Thanks for taking the time to update the thread with pictures. Any chance of getting some outdoor shots in the near future?

Tom, was looking at 18MM front and 12MM rear for stock suspension / 19" wheel setup on my M4. Thoughts?

biggripper · 07-05-2015, 08:34 AM

I have an M4 (arriving soon) with the 19" wheels. No plans to lower the car. I went with 12/12. I wanted to push the wheels out but not too far. Plus I was afraid if I pushed my fronts out too far I might increase risk for rock chips.

I should be good to go with this setup right?

AlphaOmega4 · 07-05-2015, 12:18 PM

Just got my MS 12F12R. For my M4 adaptive, 19"s
stock height with zero plans to lower.

What's everyone getting them torqued to?

The instructions say 85.. But a poster above said he torqued them to 105..

Is there a standard sweet spot.. Or more of a YMMV depending on if your lowered etc..

Trying to figure out what's best for my set up

Advice would be greatly appreciated

AlphaOmega4 · 07-06-2015, 10:51 AM

Going in Friday to get my MS spacers installed.

Am I going to need an alignment or should I be fine sense I am not lowering??

Just want to make sure I get this done properly round 1.

Thanks

No alignment needed but ensure the hub and wheel is exceptionally clean of rust/dirt before install.

If going 18mm front, should go with 15mm rear to balance out. This setup will only work with non-lowered cars as it's a bit aggressive for lowered vehicles.

Should the installer already have a tool for this or should I bring a special brush with me to make sure it gets cleaned up right?

what and where should I buy this brush?

Thanks in advance

Just get a regular wire brush from Home Depot or lowes...I would ask the installer if they have one though. I'm sure they do..pretty standard tool in a shop.

I think the 15 on the front is perfect....they are completely even now.

Sivart321 · 07-08-2015, 02:25 AM

Have any of you guys received spacers with nicks/dings on the edges?

I ordered these from IND and noticed the lug-bolt bag was super thin and must have banged against the edge of the spacers during transit. Curious if others have seen the same thing, since this appears to be how they are packaged when made.

I already e-mailed IND and expect they will be correcting things, just concerned that all of them may be like this??

Edit: IND took care of me and sent me new ones packaged individually with microfiber towels and bubblewrap. Sent me a label to return the old ones back, too. A+ service.

Did the support team take care of you? If not, let me know and we will get a new set shipped out. Sorry for the trouble.
