20 mm Project Kics all the way around. I chickened out from 25mm in the rear because it looked pretty low from the Hotchkis springs. But overall I am extremely happy. Looks 100xs better, especialy the rear.
Install was very easy. For those who dont know, Project Kics do not require removal of the studs, the 20mm comes with studs attached. Got mine from autornd.com. Great guys.

No I did not use loctite. Should I? I jsut torqued it to spec from the torque wrench that autozone lonaed me. I am going to retighten them this weekend jsut in case.
They cost me $300 shipped. Autornd sells them in 15/20 kits. But when I asked for 20/20, they hooked me up no problem.

Ill tell you when I get home. But I think its 81. Make sure you get the rings to make the spacer hubcentric to the Z.

Nice... offests should come like that OEM!
As for the spacers I recommend the loctite.... I have 15MM all around and one of them got loose and made a funky sound between 10-20 mph
since loctite, no sounds, no problems...

so you went with 20mm in the front, how does it fit? im tryin to look at the pictures but is it like perfect flush or could you have gone more or less?
I think it looks like it lines up wid the fender. im thinking you shoulda went a lil more in the back. could you have gone the 25mm you intended? or even 30?
sorry i like the setup you have so jus askin some questions
