Fuct, I have 20 front and 15 rear. Factory size tires, factory suspension. Not sure why this isn't the common setup for the Nismo with stock wheels and tires. All four corners are perfectly flushed.

Hey JaviZ,
It looks great ! Can you please tell me what brand of spacers you used. Also, did you have to modify the factory studs ?

Thx.

Saxx77, I went with the b2autodesigns hub centric spacers. Very strong piece, directly bolts onto the hub, and no need to modify factory studs. They're a vendor on here. You can find the spacers in the wheels and tires sponsor classifieds.

Just wanted to throw out there that we have 2.5mm hubcentric spacers for anyone that wants just a little bit of extra width. You could put one of these on top of a 15 or 20mm spacer.

just ordered 10mm spacers and studs from z1. to remove rear stud do you have to pull off caliber and rotor? looks like you have to.

yes you do, and you will not be happy with the 10mm. 15mm rear and 20 up front are the best with a decent drop. or 15 all around is nice too.
