The same thing happened to my 10mm Macht Schnell spacers I had in the front of my F10 (not M5 though).
The problem is that to make a 10mm spacer with a hubcentric lip the area where the lip is attached on the spacer is very thin. I recommend at least a 12mm spacer with hubcentric lip.

Someone posted a turner link here that explains it very well. I agree, but at the same time this is a product that should have been tested prior to releasing by Macht Schnell.

Where in Orange County are you? Are you able to drop by with the spacers so we can inspect them in person?

Not yet, but we may have a dyno event happening later this month on a Saturday.
PM me and maybe we can arrange a late evening? Or maybe 19th? (MLK).

Was there ever any update/resolution by Macht Schnell or EAS? I'm looking at doing the spacers, and ran Macht Schnell on my previous E60 without issues.
Just curious if it was possibly a bad batch of 10MM spacers, or if they've changed the design in light of issues. If nothing has been done, looks like I'll have to go 12MM F/R. Thanks Brad

I thought id post in here as well if someone could give me quick input..
2015 M5 CP, want to go with 12/12 MS's spacers.. any issues rubbing? I'm primarily driving solo in the car with an occasional passenger in the back.. which would be my daughter :-) little rubbing would not bother me.. |
