Both are for BMW and the F56

Not sure on the final offset - my wheels are the same offset as all the other F56 wheels. Hope the links help.

Just remember the spacers do not come with longer bolts - you will need to buy these
Did you order direct from Sandtler or did you find them locally?

I ordered direct as back then there was nothing available locally. I believe you might be able to find these in the US now

Wow, your car looks killer I really like the look of the fogs. Were they sprayed or did you use film? I tried to get the fogs tinted with film on my Countryman and no shop in Westchester wanted to touch them due to the shape.

I'm constantly working in Queens and Brooklyn. I think I'm gonna have to swing by this shop and get some work done. I've been dying to replace the chrome trim on the grill. The yellow fogs might look a little funky on my Volcanic Orange though...

Thanks - I believe the fogs were covered with film. I would recommend contacting the shop - they have done all the work on the car and I've found them very good. I'm lucky to live around the corner from them - although I am hoping to move to Westchester in the next month or so. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

A year on and I've changed my wheels and tyres (some OEM R506s and Michelin Super Sports)

Very nice! Are those wheels 18" or 19"? Look great on the F56 imo!

Looks great! What kind of tint was used on the fogs? Was the shop able to do it without removing them? I did it myself on mine, but had to remove the lights (aka partial bumper removal). And now I think they're fading after a year... probably got some cheap tint =(

Thanks! I think it was a tint film and I believe they had to also remove part of the bumper. It's tricky given the shape of the fogs
