Veilside V3 Wide Fenders wheel spacers!
Hi there wondering if anyone here using the Veilside V3 wide body fenders and what's the right side of spacers I should get? My wheels are 8.5J and 9.5J so what's the right lenght I should get? 1.5" front and 2" rear? Also what's good brand not too expensive to get? Thanks!

Measure from the top outer edge of your tire to the lip of the fender. That's what size spacers you need. But, something tells me they don't make spacers big enough for what you're looking for. Might want to look into getting appropriate wheel sizes.

Thanks! My current wheels line up straight with the fenders now! I check photos and videos from others seems like 1.5" front and 2" rear spacers will fit. I see these size of spacers are selling.. wondering anyone else using these fenders?

2"??!?!? That's like 50mm, that is absolutely ridiculous and likely unsafe to run. You need new wheels that are designed for the type of setup you are looking for, your old wheels simply don't cut it

Thats what my wheels are when I get the Z! I will install the wide fenders soon and I see the Varrsteon ES1:
(2) 19x9.5 +22 5x114.3
(2) 19x11 +11 5x114.3
Is this good and will the ES1 clear the OEM Brembo Calipers?

You don't need nor should you use widebody fenders with ANY Varr setup. Not because they're replica wheels, but because their most aggressive setup requires a pull at MOST. It'll look stupid. But yes, they will clear brembos.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do some research in what our fenders are capable of and proper setups for a widebody. The only thing worse than an unfunctional widebody setup is one with girly spec'd wheels. Listen to Terrasmack. He knows his stuff.

Wahahha.. of course I like aggressive wheels but getting spacers save alot of money for me than getting a new set of wheels. And thank you for all the advise guys! I want to get spacers first because I don't want to rush myself to get a wheels I want to take sometime and choose the right set. So running 2" spacers are dangerous right?

Why bother with the ugliest body kit , and install crap wheels. Save your money , ditch the wide body , get nice wheels.

OK so I contact this seller and he told me the ES1 won't clear the Brembo I wonder if he knows about the wheels or not because another seller tells me it will clear? Spec as follow:
Number of Bolts: 5 Manufacturer Part Number: ES1
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3 Rim Width: 9.5 / 11
Hub Bore: 73.1 Rim Diameter: 19
Rim Structure: One Piece Offset: +22 / +15
Application: Varrstoen ES1 (2) 19x9.5 +22 / (2) 19x11 +15 5x114
Here's another one the Varrstoen 19X9.5/11 ES112 WHEELS 5X114.3 RIMS ET12! Seller said it clear Brembo and spec as follow:
Number of Bolts: 5 Manufacturer Part Number: ES112
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3 Rim Width: 9.5 F/ 11 R
Hub Bore: 73.1 Rim Diameter: 19
Rim Structure: One Piece Offset: +12 / +15
Application: Varrstoen ES1 (2) 19x9.5 +12 / (2) 19x11 +15 5x114
ES1 is cheaper and they looks the same! Wondering if you guys know for sure ES1 clear OEM Brembo or not?
And yes I don't track my car just sometimes drive fast on the freeway so if I get spacers first will that be a problem?

Thanks, the bodykit already came with my Z don't want to spend more money getting new kit. U really hate the Veilside kit... I like the Amuse wide body too but I check the price included paintjob way way over price for me...

Half the time you are talking like you are looking to buy some varrs, then you say that you don't want to have to buy new wheels. What wheels do you have? If you haven't bought any then buy something that fits right. If you don't have the cash for that then get rid of the widebody and just run w/e wheels.
