Default Help on Wheel Spacers

I have Roja R2-5's that I just recently took off before I traded in my RX8. My setup is 235/35/19 8.5 +38 front & 275/30/19 9.5 +44 rear What size wheel spacers should I get? My friend told me to do 16mm on front and 22mm on rear. So thats 22 offset all around. What would u guys recommend?

That would be fine, but you would probably have to get them custom made in those sizes. I would do 20mm front and 25mm rear. FYI, those wheels in correct Z fitment would be 9.5"/10.5" +19.

All u have to do is measure from the side of the tire to the point u want them to sit ---Generally even with the lip of ur fender. That measurement is the spacer u need

You will be fine. +18/+19 is not that aggressive with 8.5"/9.5" widths.

I just posted some pictures on the other spacer thread of my Z with 20mm in front and 25mm in back. It looks sharp and both front/rear tires are pushed out and flushed with the fenders.
