Probably depends on your current offset.

You literally gave no information whatsoever. And in the time it would take for you to post your wheel diameter, width, offset, tire size, ride height and have half of the forum guessing what size spacers you should purchase, you could simply walk out to your car with a ruler, measure how much room you have and get a real life accurate idea of what you need.

Need the offset of the wheels, spacers directly effect offset.

What kind of wheels? You say 16" but is that stock bmw wheels or an aftermarket set?

If you have OEM wheels, it should be stamped somewhere on the wheel. But nobody here is going to be able to give you an accurate guess. There's nothing to convert. Just go out to your car, hold a ruler or tape measure level to the ground and measure the distance from your inner fender lip to the tire. You do know that they make metric rulers right?

Why do you want to run spacers anyway? Are your fenders rolled? Are you running stock wheels with stock tires? FWIW, your car isn't going to look "stanced" with a mild drop and balloon tires.

I'm just saying that instead of being lazy and coming here asking all of the members to guess your setup with no pics or measurements to go by, you're better off measuring it yourself. Is it really that difficult?
