since spacers seem to be a hot item... how many people would be interested in negotiating a group buy?

I may be interested once I figure out what size I need. Had a buddy that got from ECS tuning but seeing how I will stay with my spring brand, H&R are quality stuff too.

I think if we can get 20 people together who commit to buying... we can probably work out a discount with one of the vendors... possibly a percentage off msrp since everyone will require different sizes.

I'm in, but aim for a more reasonable buy-in of 5+ or 10+. If 20+, we may be waiting forever.

ECS Tuning had everything in stock including the black longer lug bolts. Super fast shipping too.

I've purchased all my stuff from Turner Motorsport, I would go with them. They have H&R as well as their own spacers, which I like the best. I went with 15/20 on my X5, I think the 25s are too much out back... But, I have the 21" Style 239 wheels also...

Avoid "bolt to the hub" spacers (> 20mm I believe) ... extra hardware ... increased likely hood of vibration, IMO. Don't have personal experience, just read this here and there.

In tentative : If I get my new wheels and tires, I'll be in for sure. I should know in a few days. I will probably go with 12mm / 20mm
