Ok, this may have been answered before, but this thread (and the spacer thread) is getting way too big to search thru.

1. I have 18" OEM rims. If i buy Nismo 18" rims, will I need to buy any spacers? My car is stock

Yep, but I'm not sure if the same width spacers are needed for the 18" versus the 19" rims. I run 19" with 15mm spacers in front and 20mm in back.

and spacers are objects are inserted between the car and the tire, to make sure everything fits snuggly.

Well ill go look around, but i wish there was some chart somewhere.

thanks

Spacers are not needed, it's personal preference.

Expect to modify your rear fenders if you go larger than 15mm spacers though.

The LMGT4 flows well with the car. Anyone know what the brand of diffusers that is?

Another 370Z Nismo pic (with 15mm spacer in front). Only problem is that they make my Stoptech BBK look small.

Any tire recommendation for 19' LMGT4? I love the tires I am using (Goodyear RS Sport) but they don't come in 19' and I just bought a new set of 19' LMGT4.
Requirement
Good compound
Great dry performance
Good wet traction
and minimum hydroplane.
