Eight millimeters is the thickest of the fine-tune spacer sizes. It is enough to pull a tucked wheel out to where the tire lines up with the fender, and on a lowered G-chassis BMW it is often the difference between a car that looks stock and one that looks finished.
Dinan 8mm wheel spacers (part number D210-2026) are machined for the BMW 5x112 bolt pattern and 66.5mm center bore used across the G-chassis lineup. Each spacer moves the wheel 8mm further from the hub, widening your track for a fuller stance and more room around big brake calipers. You get a pair, enough for one axle.
Why Dinan 8mm Wheel Spacers Are Worth It
Cheap spacers are where wheel fitment problems start. These are CNC-machined from billet 6061 aluminum and anodized black so they disappear behind the spokes. The 66.5mm bore is cut to BMW's G-chassis hub diameter so the spacer sits square on the hub face. The weight-saving design keeps unsprung mass down.
The real question with any spacer is bolts. Your factory wheel bolts are sized for wheel-to-hub contact only, and at 8mm they will no longer reach full thread engagement. Dinan calls out its 35mm M14x1.25 cone seat lug bolts for 6mm, 7mm and 8mm spacers, so there is no guessing. Order them together and you are ready to bolt up. Clearance always depends on your wheel width, offset and tire size, so check your setup or ask us before you order. Sold by AutoTecknic, an authorized Dinan dealer.

Vehicle Fitment
Dinan specifies this spacer by chassis family, not by individual model:
- BMW G-Chassis: 5x112 bolt pattern, 66.5mm center bore, M14x1.25 lug bolts
- Dinan-listed exceptions that also use this G-chassis fitment: F90 M5, F91 / F92 / F93 M8, F48 X1, F39 X2
Not for E-chassis or 5x120 F-chassis BMWs. If your car is not a G-chassis model or one of the exceptions above, contact us before ordering.
Installation Notes
A bolt-on job with a jack, jack stands and a torque wrench. The one step you cannot skip is longer bolts: Dinan matches its 35mm M14x1.25 cone seat bolts to this spacer. Never reuse your factory bolts with a spacer. Check tire-to-fender clearance at full steering lock before driving.
- Loosen the wheel bolts, raise the car and support it on jack stands.
- Remove the wheel and clean any rust or debris from the hub face.
- Slide the spacer over the hub pilot so it sits flush against the hub face.
- Mount the wheel and thread in the 35mm lug bolts by hand.
- Snug the bolts in a star pattern, lower the car and torque to your BMW's factory wheel bolt specification.
- Recheck torque after the first short drive.
