Default Wheel spacers???

Hello friends,

I write from Italy, I have a question for you. Is possible to install wheel spacers in my 350 z with Rays 18x8 and 18x8,5.
Where is the exactly measure in mm.??

Thanks bye

The max I'd go with on stock studs is 5mm in back, otherwise you need longer studs but you can run up to 15mm up front and 25mm in the rear (I have 25mm on Perofrmance rims). Careful with large spacers up front as it can change the scrub radius and effect handling/steering performance.

Don't go wider then 15mm and perhaps only 10mm in the front. With 15mm in the front the wheels will JUST stay in the fenders... When you change your tires and perhaps go to 245 or 255 in the front they will stick out too much.

Just my opinion.

You have 1.5 in spacers on your ROJA wheels or on the Track Rays wheels?

I had the TRack Rays on my car and I went with 15mm front and 20mm in the rear. 25mm in the rear makes it flush with the fender but you'd have to roll your fenders if you lower your car. Or if you change out to bigger tires than 245 later on, it'd stick out a little. 15mm in front didn't leave the tires flush with the fenders but is jsut right inside so if you ever choose to get wider tires later on, it'd sit flush.
