Space Saver Information

Hi

Just wanted to make a quick post about space savers.

I was always told that the black hub type space saver would not fit the 335i brakes.

My 330d has the same brakes as the 335i and the black hub type space saver fits over the front brakes.

It would probably not fit over the 135i brakes.

That is all.

Cheers

The 6pot calipers are bigger and I assume don't have the clearance on the steelie.
IIRC the alu wheel has less offset to make clearance for the bigger caliper.

There are also different sizes of the Steelie Space Saver available.
@DieselFan- What size Space Saver are you using? 18" perhaps?

The small 17"

The clearance is a hair length. But clearing is clearing.
