i have 25 mm spacers on and the car drives great, and looks great. the main thing you have to make sure of is that the spacers are hubcentric and designed not only specifically for the 350z but also for the rims you have.

definately look at the link provided and do searches because this has been talked about extensively in the wheel forum.

Yup,

Make sure the spacers were designed for the 350 and has a chambfered lip that fits thebore size and pitch of your rims. Do not, PLEASE do not get the spacers without a lip and designed for another car. The reason is that it will not bolt onto your hub correctly, and in turn your wheel will not mount correctly onto the hub and spacer.

In time, your hub will be damagedand the mounting plate on your rim will also become worn down or damaged.

If you have off-size hub-bores on your rim, make sure you have hub-centric rings.

cheers,
Allen
