So just to make things clear, because I'm going to be doing the same thing except with project kics spacers (have studs built into them), i would bolt on the spacers and wheels... then after 25mi like suggested take the wheels off and retorque the spacers? And then put the wheels back on, and retorque the wheels after 25mi?
That correct?
Also one more question, why do you need two jackstands and a floor jack to change wheels/add spacers? Isn't the jack that nissan gives you to change to the spare tire enough? Thanks guys!

Would that be a good deal? A floor jack and 2 jack stands? Actually my cousin down the street I'm sure has 2 jackstands, but i dont think he has a floorjack.

there is something wrong with your suspension there, your camber is way outta wack, looks like you have positive camber and the top of the tire sticks out more than the bottom

With spacers you'd be at 9.5" +9 which is pretty much the same as a 10.5" +22, a nice flush fit.
Did you remove the concentric ring before seating the spacer over the hub? Because it looks like you're bumped out about the thickness of that hub ring. Spacer is designed to fit over your stock hub, not the concentric ring.

yeah nevermind then. LOL i was too lazy and didnt have the correct jack. i used the spare tire jack and have side skirts so it was a bich. yeah it wasnt installed correctly. i just put the spacers over the existing studs. thanks for the response. i realized i have to take off the caliper, then take off the existing studs replace them with the extended studs my spacers came with put the caliper back on then spacer then rim. too much work. any idea how much this will cost at a mechanics shop?
