Pictures of 20mm and 25mm spacers

ltp · 10-06-2010, 11:25 AM

I plan to add spacers to the rear wheels without lowering the car but not sure to do 20mm or 25mm.

Anyone has pictures of 370Z with sport wheels, 20mm or 25mm spacers for the rear wheels, and without lowering the car so I can compare?

Thanks in advance

Here's some pictures of the sport wheels, 20mm spacer on the rear with new Hankook 305/30.

Here's a pic of my new wheels - 10.5", same 20mm spacer, very similar offset as stock.

Why can't you lower your car?

I scrape on my driveway and other various spots as it is, so if I lowered it I'd be in some serious trouble. It sucks too, cause I'd really like to do about an inch drop.

what do you scrape? the chin spoiler from the sports package?

Azroadster · 10-06-2010, 05:54 PM

Flash,

That sucks, and I understand because I will have similar issues but have decided to just live with it and figure out ways to mitigate scrapes as much as possible. The normal places that I drive like my driveway and such are fine, it's the occasional stupidly designed entrance to a parking lot that will be an issue. I am going to get the Eibach Pro Kit which is supposed to lower the car less than an inch. I will just live with the wheel gap after that if it doesn't look right.

springs are a catch 22. you want something that looks lowered, but you dont want it to lower too much, and lots of people end up lowering and you can't even tell. you want something that is firmer than stock, but with a similar spring rate to stock. frustrating.

Yeah, the chin spoiler. I like to treat that as a warning. I could maybe drop 1/2 an inch and remove the spoiler and at least not scrape my driveway, but there are other places I scrape sometimes, and I'm not so sure about those areas. At least scraping the spoiler doesn't really matter, but if it was my bumper I would
