Do you advice 18/18 for regular use on complete stock suspension with track usage? As I live in India lowering is out of question so at best can get the fender liners if needed

I do have spacers 12mm & 15mm. Can anyone tell what extended lug nut size I need for them? What should be tread length?

IND tricked a lot of people into buying poor fitting 12mm spacers.. maybe they had a huge stock they needed to flip 🤣

I think 18F 20R will end up being the best in the future.
Looks amazing....and mean! well done sir.

Well, I just tried 18F 15R with the default port installed MP HAS drop and Sottozeros. Definitely rubbing in front.

Probably just need to heat and push the plastic fender liner in a bit. Easy fix for G8X, check youtube

OP. Greatly appreciate the photos and post. Gives the community great information about possible mods.
Sure did for me.
Question....noob to spacers. Does increasing the thickness of the spacer (changing the wheel position)
create a noticable change in handling, cornering dynamics, or ride stability? I'm not planning on suspension change at this point.

Recently got a set of these but I noticed there’s no Future Classic in bold white branding on them. Instead, etched into them is Fall-Line along with the size and bolt measurements. Are these legit? Lol

Absolutely, your Future Classic spacers are genuine. Fall-Line has always been the manufacturer for Future Classic parts, including these spacers. While you may have noticed a change in branding from laser-etched Future Classic logos to engraved Fall-Line logos, rest assured, this alteration doesn't affect the quality or performance of the spacers. Fall-Line, known for their excellence in racecar construction and fabrication, ensures that these spacers meet the same high standards as before. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out.

This thread along with other member feedback helped me decide on spacers. Just ordered from IND today some 15mm and 18mm with extended lugs. Going to try 15 front and 18 in the rear.

FYI, I went with the IND future classic 18F 15R option and had rubbing full lock in reverse.

For now I just trimmed the offending 3 louvers down to about half the normal size. It was an ugly hack job, but it has solved my problem. I may end up going with some of the aftermarket mesh inserts if I can find a reasonable priced pair.

Car looks so much better now.

When I was waiting for my forged wheels I had Future Classic 12mm all around. Conservative but filled out nicely. MP HAS at port installed height. No rub at full lock.

Just got 15F/12R done and decided to skip the HAS kit as the wheel gap isn’t as big of an eyesore with the spacers IMHO.

Which tires do you have, if I might ask? I have the Pirellis, which I hear might be more susceptible to rub than the Michelins.

I also have MP HAS at port installed height and will be installing my FC 12 mm all around today.

We did not experience any rubbing on the G87 with up to 18mm spacers.

My front left tire rubs in reverse at full lock with the KW HAS kit a quarter turn up from max low, 18mm Future Classic spacers, factory Michelin tires. But do I care?

Rubbing with 15F/12R wheel spacers on stock ride

If not to disabuse some who may be considering spacers (certainly spacers larger that IND's standard fitment), than this is just to present my experience with the so-called standard fitment. I went with 15F/12R on stock suspension but removed all because of the contact/rubbing the 15mm produced--and the 12mm would likely produce according to my measurement.

My M2 is on Yokohama Advan Sport V107s (OEM tire) and stock suspension. Contact seems to occur with wheels turned somewhere within ~20 to 45 degree range (IDK). Horrible sound produced by contact with the louvers, which increasingly protrude just enough to catch the tire as it's pushed out at least 15mm (12mm also a likely no-go--which I believe some others experienced). Cutting into the louvers just not worth it for spacers (and can't justify the $800+ for wheel well liners designed to accommodate them).

I get similar slight rub in reverse at almost full lock with yokos, 12mm spacers, and about 20mm drop on MPHAS. Might switch to 10mm spacers instead.

I could have trimmed the louvers, I suppose. But, the why prevailed over the why not argument.

BTW, beautiful car...color, stance, wheels, etc. It's all there.
