Planning on 15mm up front and 20mm rears running the 245/40/18 fronts and 275/40/18 rears.

Looking to order everything this upcoming week if work isn't too crazy.

What would be the difference between the 5mm difference in spaces from front to back? Would one combo be better than the other or is it just preference? (ex: 15mm front 20mm rear to 20mm front 25mm rear).

Most people run a bigger spacer in the rear when the offset is the same on the wheels, because your wheels have a different offset then each other I would run 10mm more rear.. The closer you get a 15-20 offset the happier you will probably be...

Whatever you end up getting I would go 10+mm over whatever you get for the front for the back to even things out.

it isnt bad, the dash, door panels, and center arm rest are all real leather (an expensive option for the original owner), analog gauges, but the heads up display is nice (even shows the gps up there) the radio and ac control are good considering the age of the car. if you dont want the Z06 then get the Grand Sport. same body, brakes, etc just with smaller engine, steel frame, and less carbon fiber in the body

Tires ordered.

So what size spacers should I go with? Z1 is running specials on spacers, but only 20mm, 25mm, and 30mm.

Not worried about price, just need to make sure to get the right size.

Bejesus man you got to just pull the trigger and hope for the best... Get 20 for the front and 25 or 30 for the back... They will all work out fine the bigger you go the closer to flush they will be.

One note on the bolt on spacers if you dont have holes in those wheels for your oem studs to live you will need at least 25mm front and back. Look at the back of the wheels before you order... Oem wheels have spaces, some aftermarket wheels dont.

Know Im running behind.

Tires on the way(should be here on tuesday), wheels got a protective powder coat as a precaution.

Planning on mounting wheels/tires and seeing exactly what size spacers to go with. Thankfully, a good friend of mine is a Nissan tech and is lending a hand.

Looking to have everything on by this upcoming weds.

*fingers crossed*
