FAQ: Official wheel "SPACER" thread!
#1262
Hmm yeah that front what I'm worried about more. Question why does everyone I see with wheels say they're running spacers?? For the more poke and aggression? Or because it's required or what?

Arg.
V1 touring rims running 245/45 square with 25mm spacers all around and stock suspension.
This is a typical and usually problem free setup, but the square 245s actually push the front out enough to rub.
So headsup, 245 upfront should only run 15mm max.
Now I must Get rid of these 25 and find a 15.

Dealer Will Not Install Spacers...
Not sure where to go, there are not many good shops around me (Buffalo, NY).
They said they car unable to install due to liability. I still have to buy spacers but want something that bolt on and do not make me remove the stock studs.

Try the top red bar, ''tools'' tab if you need help on measurements. Also Tire rack.com should have pretty good helps. In Marketplace you can see which vendors are here. Hope that helps.

Looking for some wheel spacers for my 350Z
So I have the stock 35th anniversary wheels for my 350 and they sit into the fender a little more than I want them to so I wanted to get some spacers to make it a little more flush with the sides. I don't want to but your regular Autozone ones that are going to break as soon as it starts moving i'd rather pay a little more for something thats going to fit and perform right. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3 or 4.5". If you need any more info about the car or would like to warn me about any side effects that wheel spacers come with please don't hesitate to post below. Also if I would need to do any fender rolling or other things like that to make them fit. Thanks for the help.
