I think I need the +15 but then what size spacer would I need?

The +15 will get you the most flush. Is the car lowered?

Car is dropped about an inch front and rear but I can change as needed. I don't really care about stance as much as I do performance.

Well stock sport are 10" +30. A 9" +15 will extend 26mm and retain the same stock inner clearance. I wouldn't recommend using a spacer if you plan on autocrossing the car.

Thanks for the great input everyone much appreciated.

So if I run 9.5 front and 9.5 rear will the front end up being flush and the rear looking the same as it does stock? If so would I be better off with the +22 up front and the +15 rear?

it depend's on your rear camber setting.
my factory 18x9+15's are only 10mm from being flush w/-1.7 camber
that's measuring off of the bead of the 275 tire.

Same size wheel & "flush-fit"-there is right at a 1" difference in offset.
example (+25 front,0 rear) pending camber.

I am looking to put my old set of Vossen CV5's on my 15 Nismo in the spring. They are 20x9+35 245/35 and 20x10.5+45 275/30.

I was wondering what a good size spacer to run would be?

I dont want it too aggressive because the new Nismo has fender flares that stick in the wheel well more than the fender does.

I am lowered on coilovers, from the center of the fender to the ground is 26.25" in the front and 26.5" in the rear.

Thanks

If I were you, I'd run a 15mm spacer up front to give you an end offset of +20 and a 30mm on the rear for an end offset of +15. You shouldn't have any rubbing issues with this setup.

So i posted this in the past and I had a quick question.

I am going to run a 15mm front spacer and a 30mm rear but my biggest concern is will it rub on the 2015 Nismo fender flares? I know guys were saying no but im not sure if they were basing that off of a regular z fender.

Regular Z fenders or Nismo doesn't matter. The nismo "fender flares" are just little side moldings added onto the regular Z fenders. Regardless, you should have any issues with those sizes.

My concern was the flares have a lip that stick into the fender-well so i didn't know if that would cause rubbing.

Thank you though!

I see what you're saying. Are you planning on lowering the car?

Pending on your camber setting; 10,15mm front & 25,30mm rear/ also a 285/30 would even up the tire height.

Camber is within factory spec, give or take ~.3

I would like to change the tire but they still have alot of tread left so I plan on using those. They were off of my G37, I probably wont run them for long but I want to go to a couple of meets/shows in the spring and wanted to have aftermarket wheels.

I would have to change my wheel studs in the front if i ran 10mm correct? or even 15mm for that matter. Rear i believe would be fine with bolt ons

[jchammond]

Easiest way is to mount them up & measure
