Need help with spacers
 

I've got stern st2 rims, and need spacers for the rears 275/30/20 +15 I think or atleast that's what their site says and there 9.5 in the rear I believe ? But there's 4 types of H&R's, DR/DRA/DRS/DRM Series, which one do I need ?? The tire n rim guys also said to get 12x1.25 stud, 66.1 hub bore, I'll go with 25 mm spacers and hub centric

Here is an example of what you need to post. I will use my setup

Front Wheels: 19x9.5 +25
Rear Wheels: 19x10.5 +22

Front Tires: 265/35/19
Rear Tires: 305/30/19

^^^^ If you don't have these specs, you need to call the company you got the wheels from and get them. From your post it sounded like you have 9.5 inch wide rear wheels?? If this is true, and we assume a 10.5 inch wheel with an offset of +12 is flushish, then your 9.5 inch wheel with a +15 offset looks the same as a 10.5 inch wheel with +27 offset. So your spacer would need to be a 15mm spacer. If you track the car you want the stud replacement type spacers. Go to concept z, find the spacers section and you will see "bolt on" and "slip on". Slip on is trackable, but not recommended by many.

Until you confirm the correct wheel specs though, this is my guess.

The rims came with my old car over 7 years ago, the only info they stated about the offset was this.
Front wheels 20x8.5 +13
Rear wheels 20x9.5 +15

Front tires 245/35/20
Rear tires 275/30/20

I don't need a spacer for the front, it looks fine, but the shop that installed my rims and tires said a 45mm would make the rear flush, I was told by many including on this forum to not get 45mm and just get new rims which Im not going to do as I just spent over 3K on these rims and tires, (powder coated) so I'm just thinking of getting 25mm spacers which Is what Z owners told me was the norm, but my question was which of the 4 H&R series spacers do I get, dr/drs/dra/DRM? And I'm not tracking

25mm spacers are the norm with guys with sport package wheels with offset much higher than 15.

Can anyone else confirm this? 45 makes no sense and 25 seems to me like it will need camber in the rear to work.

I only know bolt on type and slip on type for spacers. Someone else will need to chime in on that. Slip would be my choice.

Yeah 15-25 in the rear seems normal. Someone recommending 45 is an utter bastard who wants tragedy to befall Zeetah. That is not cool

I believe you will need the DRM spacers for the back. The DRS I think are the stud replacement version.

I can imagine a 45mm being needed because who ever recommended those size wheels for your car gave you some horrible specs. We usually recommend 9.5 in the front and 10.5 or 11 in the rear.

We ran a 19x11+15 on our car for a little bit and needed a 20mm spacer to make it sit flush. Keep in mind this car was lowered, so we had negative camber to compensate for.

Since your wheel is 1.5" more narrow, then you will probably need something close to 45mm to close the gap. However, I would NOT suggest buying a spacer that big.

If you want a 25mm spacer to help, I have a pair in stock.

The guys that installed my rims n tires said 45mm would be flush and quite a few guys on this forum go there and suggested that place. The rims were off my 350z from many years ago. I'm going to stick with 25mm. So now your saying it will affect the camber? I hate that negative positive look of the rims and tires where it looks angled, I definitely don't want that to happen if I get the spacer

No, I'm saying since OUR car was lowered, there was some negative camber that caused a little more gap to fender.

dude seroiusly

sell those shitty *** wheels and buy something in better sizes

monkeying around with spacers is ridiculous to me

:iagree:

Trust me, if I could buy new ones I wound, so spacers will have to do, hundreds of people on this forum use spacers.

Or let's start a donation thread, I'm #1 on the list!!

Oh for sure, a lot of people use spacers on their stock wheels. But if you're going to drop the money on a new set of wheels, you might as well buy something that is going to fit your car with out having to buy spacers too.

Let me know if you still need spacers. I have some laying around, new and used.
