    Spacers on m5

    Hi all
    just recently bought 06 M5. I was thinking of some mods to do but ran into the issue of front bushings needing replacement. I was told alignment would be needed so if I planned on doing anything with wheels/suspension that’d be a good time. I was looking into lowering the car and adding spacers with the stock wheels when I’m checking out the wheels and noticed they may be spaced out already. Can anyone help me confirm this? Based on what I’m seeing, if thats a spacer I’m measuring, I have 0.5” (or 12mm) spacers.

    Thanks!!

    Yes, you have spacers. You can clearly see the hub of the wheel is spaced out from the actual brake rotor.
