Yes, I think any amount of spacing helps the look dramatically
Here are the pics of the 15mm.
15mm Spacer installed (Rear)

I installed Eibach springs today, it looks even better now, I'll takes some pics tomorrow and post in a separate thread.

I think the body was designed with wider wheels in mind. The Nismo wheels should definitely sit out a litter further. The spacer seems to be a nice solution for the stock wheels, just need quality longer studs.

Which springs did you get? What was the lowering amount. Were they progressive springs? Where did you get them?

They are the progressive Eibach Springs, lowers the car .9 rear & .8 inch front. so about an inch. I'll post some pics up later. The car feels great, a little more connected to the road, but not harsh at all, ride quality is very similar to stock, you can feel it just a bit more on the larger bumps, but small to medium feels like stock. Eibach did a great job with the spring rates.

Thank you for putting 15mm spacers and taking pics. I was looking at a 19x10 wheel with a 15 mm offset which would fit exactly like the stock wheel w a 15mm spacer. Now I know it'll fit. Perfect

Rays RE30 19x10 15mm spacer with the deep face for the rear in bronze on a blue Z. I'm excited now
