15MM doesn't look much different.

That's right, dropping will induce negative camber, and the 15 mm spacers helped to push the wheel and tire out so they're more flush with the fender again.

It does make a difference, that 15mm difference bugged the hell out of me when I had the nismo rims with no spacers.

then your looking for spacer answers in the wrong forum. the nismo wheels are 1/2" wider than the sport/40th wheels.
