That looks very nice! You haven't lowered your Z, correct? I'm getting 25 installed on my rears for winter because they are 235/18 only. I ask because I haven't seen any stock height with 25mm spacers on rear..
More photos please!:thumbup:

No issues whatsoever with handling. I did have to raise my coils in the front a tad once I got the perfect alignment. But handling is still spot on, no regrets 10k later.

Do I need to have the spacers or wheels re-torqued after like 80 miles?

Edit: so, stock height?

Am I re-torquing the actual spacers or the wheels?

The Nismo Guys love the 15mm spacers on theirs! Base/sport bodies love the 20/25mm combo with swift springs!

Guys, I'm new to this car. What is "swift" which you guys are talking about? Also, if I intend to run 295 tyres at rear, will 25mm spacer be too much on a non-lowered car?

Swift is a brand but here we are referring to springs. They replace the stock and lower the car by an inch or so
