Swift springs and spacers

tnav

In case anyone wonders about the alignment after Swift Springs ... hope this helps, it's a great setup with the 20mm spacers

Wow that was a lot of rear camber. If I were you though I'd save to buy camber arms and switch the front and rear numbers. -2.4 front, -1.5 rear would be great.

We have plenty of 20/25 spacers if anyone wants some at a super discounted price of $100, with the purchase of swift springs!

I drive the car very hard, not a daily driver by any means ... the tires actually wear out just perfect and the handling feels almost perfect.

The fronts do rub a little if I am taking hard turns and the turn happens to be bumpy. Most owners won't have that issue. I could swear my rears rubbed during a fast a long turn up in the LA mountains, but I could be wrong

Several months later, the rears are perfect based on my driving that is ... the fronts however need more camber, I need another -degree as you said, not sure a front sway bar would fix that, but as of now the fronts area wearing off on the outside a lot more

I've been following a bunch of the Swift springs and spacer threads.
Maybe some of the people with the newer Sport wheels (edit.....Ray's 19") could post up some pics of their 370s with the info of the size of spacers they've gone with. There is one huge thread (edit.....which I can no longer locate) and I've been through it all but it's quite old, and hence, not too many pics of recent Sport wheels with the Swifts and spacers.

Thanks

I'm a bit confused...

I have a 2016 Nismo and I'm going to go with Swift springs here right away. I want to order the spacers at the same time, but I'm not confident on what to go with.

Items to consider:
- I will likely never up size the tires. The stock size seems huge as is for a relatively low powered car. I want to keep it as nimble as possible so bigger tires seems it'll only hurt that.

- it sounds like I should go with 15mm spacers all around. I will keep those plastic OEM fender flares on (I want to keep the car looking OEM+). Will the 15mm spacers cause any rubbing?

- will the wheels still look sunken with a 15mm spacer due to those OEM Nismo fender flares?

- should I go to bigger spacers?

- will I have to mess with camber if I drop the car on swift springs? I'd prefer not to have to.

- anyone have photos of a 15/16 Nismo on swift springs and 15mm spacers?

I like to drive hard. I want to avoid rubbing, yet have the most realistically wide stance possible while still being able to hit corners at light speed. Any help would be appreciated!!

Zzzzz.... anyone?

wheee!

There are a ton of threads on this topic. But yes, 15's will not rub. I went 20 on the rears with 305's and -1.2 camber.
Yes, you will have to adjust for camber and toe. Get the camber arms and toe bolts.

I'm so confused
Can someone please explain?

wheee!

It all depends on the wheels and how aggressive you want to run your camber.
Stock rays and mild camber and 15 front and 20 rear (spacers) are a safe bet.
More spacer means more camber is required to tuck the wheels under the car.
