I’m looking to get 10mm hub-centric spacers for my rear wheels. I know there are strong beliefs one way or another on the use of spacers but I want to reduce the fender gap slightly while sticking to OEM MB wheels (note that the wheels I want to use are from another model so the offsets are a bit high in the rear). Any recommendations on brands that have been known to work well on our W212s? 10mm seems to be the borderline width in having them hub-centric with a lip to fit on the available factory hub height. I’m currently looking at H&R, Adaptec, Eibach, and Otis which all vary in price. I don’t mind spending a bit more for something more reputable and durable.

 

I am running 15mm H&R hubcentric spacers on the rear. No issues, but you should always make sure to run a longer wheel stud to match.

 

---no wait--------------no I am right------------spacers-----------------actually I was wrong and I am like ------------

Can we please talk about something else

 

Which wheels do you have? I have the 18x8.5+48 front and 18x9 +54, on 15mm spacers rear and the fitment is very flush. 12mm on the front

 

I was always avoiding spacers as far as I could, but dealing with after market wheels, I had to use them couple of time.
From what I remember 10 mm spacers are the most danger they can be.
Too thin to make its own flange, when too thick to have original flange to hold the wheel.
If you decide to use them, do your homework very carefully.
