Forgive me guys but I use the search feature but didn't get what I was fishing for. Anyway, I love the 370Z Sport wheels and I think I'm gonna stay with it for a long time. However, the gap seems to bother me a bit. I was on the Eibach website looking for wheel spacers but I absolutely have no idea how offset works. In a nutshell, Is there anyone here that installed wheel spacers on their stock (sport package) wheels to eliminate the gap? I really wanted it to be lined up with the fenders for a better and aggressive look. Thanks a bunch!!!! (Flame suit off)
That's not too hard. Get a ruler that has a millimeter reading and measure how many mm's you want to bring your wheel out. For example, if you want to poke the wheel out 20 mm, then get a 20 mm spacer.
Yes, you will need to lower the car to reduce the wheel gap. Spacers push the wheels out further, thus making them more flush with the fenders. Use the technique Calin suggested to measure for appropriate wheel spacers. Keep in mind that your tires may rub if the car is lowered and spacers are installed.

Thnaks y'all. At this point, I'm ok with the height. I think spacers is what I need. I measured it last night and it look like 1 inch is what I need. Thanks silverbulletZ!

Yes pics please!!! I thought I measured 40mm on the back. But wasn't so sure because of the camber. I'm probably gonna go with Nismo suspension down the road..
Thanks NissanZ03, I've been using that name since Quake 2 online. Yup, I'm a geezer!

Go to the 370z.com there is a world of info regarding this subject. Most typical would be 15 front and 20 rear. However when shopping for the front's make sure you get H&R with stud replacements. Only brand so far that does not have any shakes on the front.
