just wondering, has anyone thought of putting wheel spacers on the standard NISMO Z with it's stock wheel set-up? opinions are appreciated? thanX.

 

yeah. my beautiful girlfriend bought me the stechs for christmas, but she is gonna pay for some spacers too, i just dont know which ones to get.. but after christmas ill definately post some pictures of it lowered and widened

 

Hi, im guessing you put the wheel spacers just on the back wheels, correct??

 

i would get the 15mm version of these:

i would get spacers front and rear.

 

Ok cool. Thanks. Would you get the same size for both front and rear (i.e. 15mm) ?? Or do u need different spacing for the rear and different for the front?

 

thanX for the input. i appreciate it. if ever i'm goin'to do it, definitely front and rear.

 

same size should be fine. the wheels are already staggered.

 

The wheels on the Nismo Z are the same as the '06-07 Rays and I made a thread about running spacers on them.

Sounds good. Thanks.

 

Why?

 

so the wheels can sit flush with the fenders?!?!

 

Ok... Here's a really dumb question (on my part), but why put spacers on the car? I understand why people do it but can you fit wider tires on the Nismo rims? and if so does it that take away from the performance that the car is engineered for? I'm just trying to understand the point.

Unless you plan on making your Nismo a widebody Now that would be sick

 

thanX man.

 

I have been wanting to do that for some time now but am just unsure of what size to get. It looks like the 15mm would be safe but I'd really like to see it done first to get an idea.
