Hey guys, I'm planning on installing raceland coilovers onto my '92 318is. I'm stressing over the possibility that I may need spacers. I'm definitely going to get my fenders rolled. I'm running 18 inch wheels with slightly stretched tires. It would be a huge help if anyone has had a similar setup and whether they needed spacers or not.
This is my wheel setup:
Front: 18x8.5 +38, 215/40R18
Rear: 18x9.5 +35, 225/40R18
Thanks guys!
I have a 97 M3:
ACS III wheels, 18 x 8.5" et 43 225/40 in front with 20mm spacer (to clear BBK) and 255/35 in rear.....this is on GC street coilovers. I think the 40 in the rear might be too tall, but your fronts should be fine, but I'm not 100% sure.

A 225/40R18 is really stretched on a 18X9.5 wheel. The front would be OK on the tires. I think spacers are going to be the least of your worries. With that wide of wheels I think the issue is going to be at the fender. For that rear wheel I would look at 245/35R18. If I can help let me know.
