Turner Black BMW 17.5mm Big Pad Wheel Spacers (Pair) – Most F-Chassis BMWs

Description

17.5MM (.69 inch) Wheel Spacer for “Big Pad” BMW wheels (F2X F8X F01 F02 F06 F07 F10 F30 F31 F32 F34 F36 )

These are our Big Pad wheel spacers designed for the latest generation of factory BMW wheels. The “wheel pad” is the back of the wheel that mounts to the hub on the car. Since the early 2000s the factory BMW wheel pad diameter has grown – 150mm, 152mm, 154mm, and now 156mm. Most of the wheel spacers on the market are 152mm. The difference from using the smaller spacer on a large pad will leave an unsightly step down between the back of the wheel and the brake rotor hat (see image). To fix this visual defect we use a larger diameter spacer – the Big Pad. This will have less of a step, or no step at all, when used with the larger pad size. Note that nearly all aftermarket wheel manufacturers use the smaller pad size (mainly to reduce unsprung weight). For more information on wheel pad sizes and their effects on fitment and strength, click to our spacers FAQ page.

Wheel spacers are the ideal solution to resolve a number of fitment and aesthetic problems. A spacer fits between the wheel and the hub assembly. The wheel will be pushed further outboard by the thickness of the spacer. Spacers allow you to correct wheel offset issues when the wheel is too ‘tucked in’ to the bodywork, clear the wheel from contact with the suspension or inner bodywork, clear larger brakes, improve handling and stability by increasing track width, or simply to get the right look and stance. Our wheel spacers are compatible with almost any type of BMW wheel and are a direct fit to the wheel hub (see below for any fitment notes). Longer wheel bolts or wheel studs are required.

This latest generation of the Turner Motorsport Wheel Spacers represent a total redesign of the wheel spacer concept – a ground-up, clean-sheet design based on our years of BMW service and motorsports. We took everything we have learned from our service technicians, customers, and race team crew and built the spacer to beat all spacers. We’ve been in the BMW wheel spacer business probably longer than anybody and when it came time to make our own spacers, a basic spacer design just wouldn’t do. We had to make a spacer that is lightweight (for lower unsprung mass), has a tough and durable coating to last through our New England winters, is easily removed (your mechanic will thank you), and is precisely engineered and manufactured for a proper fit on the hub and in the wheel. You won’t find a better-engineered wheel spacer on the market!
