u guys dont' feel like 25mm all around makes the fronts look more flush then the rear?
I feel like 5mm more in the rear makes it loook alot better, but just my opinion haha.

Last One fellas: 25mm all around on 4 corners w/ stock 18" wheel
If by now you can't see why 25mm on stock wheels is the best way to go
without any issues of rubbing or having to roll your fenders then i dont know
what else to tell you.

I had Sportines which slammed the car; 15mm fronts and 25mm rears, rolled fenders and running -1.5. Stock 18"s. There is no way I could run 25mm in the rear without rubbing after I lowered it.

probably at stock height, doubtful if lowered depending how aggressive you went.

Five more in the rear would look alot better and make the front and rear look a bit more evenly pushed out. I also have 25 all the way around and not completely satisfied with the look, but it's still better than stock!

This thread has definitely been tempting me to get this done on my stockers while waiting on my wheels but for some reason some of the local installers I've contacted have not been wanting to do it for liability reasons?

If you can take a wheel off and put it back on, you can handle doing your own spacers.
If not, you shouldn't be driving a car, get a bus pass.
EDIT: a few tips I figured out while installing my 20mm front/25mm rear on stock everything (18")-
use a torque wrench and find the write specs, otherwise prepare to be paranoid everytime you're on the highway,
make sure they are hubcentric for a 350z,
install, drive 50 miles, retorque if required (check whenever wheels are off),
ENJOY! it looks better and more oem than oem does (before spacers people asked my why my stock wheels didnt fit right)
