Default What wheel spacers to use??

Looking at putting some wheel spacers on my new 370Z. Would like to know what brand you guys recommend and also how to measure for the right size. I'm also looking at lowering the car about an inch in the future if that makes a difference in which spacers to use. If you have any suggestions on what springs to use that would be helpful too. I'd like to keep it as close to factory ride as possible. Thanks.

^ that is one great thread.


OP: i recommend you go through it then head over to "t h e 3 7 0 z . c o m" (of course take the spaces out) and look in the 'wheels and tires' section. there is a current thread there....should be towards the top....you'll get more of an idea of what you want since its all 370z's.

If you want to keep it as close to factory as possible, doesn't that mean you don't want to lower it or put on wheel spacers?

What i said was i want to keep the RIDE as close to factory as possible. In other words i don't want the suspension to feel any different, especially not harsh.

for the 370, the H&R seem to be the popular/reliable spacers everyone is going for. i just ordered 20mm front and 25mm rear.

Do you have the sport wheels? Wondering how you came up with those size spacers? Someone else on here recommended 10mm front and 15mm rear. Let me know how you like the spacers.

Yes i have the sport 19in wheels. I went with 20 and 25 rear to have a full flush look as i will be dropping my car on Stance coils. 10 and 15 is a weak set-up.....most guys are doing 15 front and 20 rear, you got PM
