Default Wheel spacer

I am owner 06 350Z Track. I feel the stock rims is go a little inside the fender. So I want to put a wheel spacer on it, make it a littler wider but not too wide.
I dont know what size of wheel spacer whould i go with ? 15 mm 20 mm ?

Thank you

Depends on your own preference...how much you want to push out the wheels. I've seen people do 20mm in the front and 25mm in the back and it's looks pretty nice.

How far do you want to move the wheels?

25mm front / 30mm rear will be more flushed. Trust me.

This is ideal for track wheels, it will make it look very clean and flush. I had 15mm all around...not enough. I recently put 25mm/30mm on and it looks damn sexy.

I suggest do 25mm/30mm or you will eventually regret it. I can post some pics once I get a camera.

H&R & Ichiba sells the 25mm spacers. Project Kics is the only one that sells the 30mm spacers for our Z (but they are hard to get). It took me over a month to find the hubcentric rings for the 30mm spacers.

If you wait another week, I will be selling my setup. I'm mounting aftermarket rims with wider tires so I can no longer use my spacers. I've got the H&R 25mm hubcentric spacers & Project Kics 30mm spacers (with hubcentric rings). Both have built-in bolts and easy to install.

Well it true , Project Kics 30 mm is very hard to find.

By the way I see one in e-bay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-...3A1|240%3A1318

Is this the one ?
What is that mean by Spacer M12x1.25 5x114.3 30mm ?

25mm would give it a nice stance.
30mm for more flushness in rear.

Yeah, that's it but I would contact one of the forum vendors here if I were you. I think CZP carries the Project Kics spacers. You will also need to order the 30mm hub rings, which is about $30 more.
