Yeah there not really needed, pain in the arse that they don't fold when turning the car off.

Got mine from ebay.de also gav.

Try bmminiparts.com also. Go on realoem.com to get the part no and request a price from them, might be cheaper.

Cheers nathan, makes a change to everyone saying it's turned chavvy

I'm not really sure. It doesn't drive any different, and alot of people on the z4 forum have 12/15mm front spacers and 20mm on the rear, so it should be fine.

Gav, what ones did you go for? I'm thinking about sticking the 20's on the rear and see if theres more clearance, just for peace of mind.

A lovely bloke was giving these away and as mine are pitted and generally poor condition, I snapped them up. I just had to pay for the postage (£5.00)

i'll see what i can do. i was going to keep them to use if i ever get a quad exhaust backbox made (just a pipe dream).

got some quick pics. they aren't the best as it's dirty, but it's too cold to bother washing.

Looking good. Spacers make wheels look much bigger.

Love that tiny bit of body colour between the lights. Such a cool touch

good point, changed the pic although it isn't as good.

i enjoy getting the back end out now. the first few times it happened i shit my pants. last week i went around a slight bend doing 50-60mph and the back end went ever so slightly. the other half was not best pleased
