This is just eyeballing it though, it seems like the 3 washers I put in mine were not as thick.Current Cars2014 M235i2009 R56 Cooper S1998 M31997 M3

Originally posted by DaveCNWhat size washers did you use?
At first I tried only using 2 of the washers I bought and the slightly gold-colored hardened steel washer that was already behind the nut, but when i tightened down the nut all the way there was still a tiny bit of play in the wheel. I swapped the third washer for the original one and now the wheel is perfectly tight, and horn/signals work.
Only problem is that the dialectric grease I used on the hub got scraped off by the horn connection, and the wheel squeaks now.
Maybe try measuring stacks of appropriately sized washers 3 at a time at a hardware store, and see how close to 14mm you get.sigpic

No play at all. From front of car to rear... 14mm spacer, mtech 1 wheel, 14mm spacer, locker washer, locking washer, locking nut ...I have a '91 with the airbag column. There is no play in the steering wheel. Next weekend I will take mine off and show Dave. If anyone else is interested I can take pics as well.
