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.

yea, with the 18s in the standard offsets, i prefer the look of the 15mm rear and 20mm front. but thats just me, aggressive but not overdone

Need to lower it badly lol , 18 LMGT4 F8.5 R9.5 tires F 255/40/18 R 275/35/18 . I didnt chose the tire sizes i would have went with a 40 series sidewall in the rear but i gave these wheels to my little brother last year who bought tires for them a few months ago while i got RPF1s. Just got these wheels back yesterday, i let him borrow my RPF1s

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.
