Default A little help with choosing Spacers...

Hello,

I recently purchased 19 inch Nismo LMG4's. I love the wheels but I was wondering if any of the wheel experts could help me out. I was looking to purchase spacers to give my car more of an aggresive look like other owners that have a +20 or lower offset. My front rims are 19x8.5 +25 and the rears are 19x9.5 +30. I was thinking of 15 mm spacer in the rear and a 10 mm spacer in the front. So my offset would be +15 everywhere. My question is would I need to get my fenders rolled if I get dropped on Tein S-techs (only a .7/.6 inch drop)? And do any of you have any pictures of similar offsets so I could get an idea of how flush it will be?

Thanks in advance,
Dan

Just measure the distance you would like your wheels to sit outwards towards the fender (in MM) and get an appropriately sized spacer. Visualize, or if you must get some cardboard and mock up a wheel to see if this will cause any apparent rubbing conflicts with how many MM you want to push your wheels out. Unless you're going extremely aggressive you should be able to roll around like that for a few days to see if you have any rubbing with your daily commute or planned uses for your car. If there is rubbing, then get your fenders rolled. That's really all there is to it.
