Today was one of those "disaster" washed car days

- Washed Car last night
- Park infront of work today because its sunny and car is sexy
- construction nearby blows heaps of dust onto car
- move car at 11, go get a quick hand wash during lunch
- go back downtown, park elsewhere
- Come out to pay meter, car is covered in spots...building nearby was being washed
- FML

yay for emoticons

I feel you TheGreatOne, I washed my Z last Wed, rain on Thur night, washed again on Sat night, sprinkle on Mon a bit, just enough to dirty the Z. Washed it again last night, hopefully the weather will be good for the next at least 4-5 days.

Stuff like that always happens to me. Washed my car one day and 3 hours later it started to down pour and rain was not even on the forecast at all for 7 days and no chance of rain at all, reason why I washed it. Sh1t happens, sometimes too often.

Drove the Z to gym with a nice coat of yellow pollen. Rained, now I've got the leopard spots. Wash tomorrow.

Mr.kenchan, I looked up the invoice, the spec for the rear rim is 19X10.5 +25

I am eying on the H&R DRM spacer, so I believe the length of the lugs shouldn't be a problem, correct??

Then I use a ruler, measure the distance from the side wall of the tire to the tape, be careful on where do you lay your ruler on the sidewall because there's camber, and since I am measuring the gap for both front and rear, it is important to make sure the measurement is taken properly. How to achieve that is actually simple, all you need to do is to pick a reference distance from the edge of the fender to where lay your ruler to measure the gap, I put the ruler 2.5inches below the edge of the front and rear fender, and the gap are 25mm front and 40mm rear.

The difference between the front and back is 15mm.

A pair of 15mm spacers I am going to order.
