Got the spacers in.. Waiting for tires. Will be in on wed. I'll post pic when I get them installed.
Thx for the info.

Hey guys, heres the pix with the 15mm H&R spacers. I love the look and cant wait to get my new tires on wed and Swift Spec-R springs. Was gonna run Tein mono coilovers but its out of my budget right now. I'm still a lil nervous that it might poke out too much for my likin even I've got confirmation not to worries.:eekdance:

Nah, it'll look perfect with a drop. Tops will tuck in as you lower it (ie. increasing negative camber).

You'll be fine. I went conservative and 20 all around. Gave myself some room for 305's.

Yeah, but on his nismo, the tires/rims are already wider. 20mm's on his and he'd be monster truckin :P

Looks good man. It'll look even better with the drop!

nmjaxx9 10-29-2012 01:17 PM

I think 15-20mm is the best fit, 25 looks good on some, but others not. I think im gonna run ichibas 15-20 :driving:

Thx josh.. How do u like ur swift springs? I just ordered the Spec R's..
Will be doing some occasional tracking so hope it handles the way they claim.

bdub561: They're both DRS right? I'm hesitant on the whole spacer situation...

fuct 10-29-2012 02:50 PM

if you can do your own brake pad/rotor change you can change the studs. its easy.....

Nu2Nizmo's 10-29-2012 03:13 PM

Fuct right.. It's really easy to do. If u have an air gun setup only takes a few hrs for both front and rears.

I have 20/25 bolt on from b2autodesigns. $220 for front and rear. I have a base with sport package and its perfect. Just use a 1/2" drive and you'll be fine. I would have done stud replacement, but i plan on changing the rims and getting the right offsets

Did you use and Anti-Seize on the threads or the spacer itself?

I haven't put any on yet, but I'm wondering if I should if it will protect it from corrosion. I don't plan on really adjusting or removing them in the future, I just want to make sure that they stay intact.
