Benefits of wheel spacers????

[TomK]

[ref]TomK[/ref], are you stating that it’s okay for him to add spacers to widen the track, how thick should he go? 5, 10, 15 or perhaps 50mm is okay. Your argument that BMW does it so it’s okay, which it is for them because someone at BMW will have calculated it all out, have you?

My point was and remains so, that lowering the offset using spacers increases the stress on steering/suspension components, this is an indisputable fact

Yes, I understand what your point was and no doubt it is true to some extent, I was just trying to say it's a bit of a non-event when kept within relatively normal boundaries (50mm is not what most people would consider to be normal). Can you show me an instance for example on this forum of the no doubt many hundreds if not thousands of people who have run spacers and suffered a resultant mechanical failure?
