15mm or 20mm spacers

christian370z

20mm all around. I am lowered on Swifts and even under the hardest conditions, I get no rubbing and no vibrations at high speeds.

I went with H&R TRAK+ Wheel Spacers DRS® Series.

There is alot of debate in DRS vs DRM. In my eyes DRM is easier to install but weighs more and is not as strong. DRS requires you to disassemble the brake system and pull the original studs.

The install isn't that more complicated, but more fun

I have 20mm all around with no drop on my stock sport wheels and it's pretty flush.

Just a heads up. You can't install DRM spacers for the front.

You can but I have seen people have to cut the original studs in the front. Messy

Da.Menace

Yeah... Cutting studs.. not the best thing to do -.-

I'm a big fan of the H&R spacers. On the 370, I think 20/25 looks best. If you're lowered much more than what the Swift springs do, you may rub slightly on bumps, depending on your exact height and tire sizes. 20/20 is good too, and there's pretty much no way that'll rub unless you're super low with coilovers and soft spring rates.

is there any major difference in companies? or are all the known manufacturers pretty much equal in quality?

You are looking for aluminum alloy and CNC machined.

The aluminum alloy helps with strength and avoids it from fusing to either the steal rotor or the rim.

Then CNC machining is exact and balanced.

Some spacers are made from other materials and made differntly.

As for the Z1 product, I didn't buy them because they weren't on the market yet. I have not found a product that Z1 makes that wasn't of great quality. Z1's are cheaper in price than the H&R's but they seem to be made the same way and with the same materials. I still suggest the DRS for H&R or the the replacement studs from Z1.

In short

What are they made of?
How are they made?
Do they have replacement studs?
Are they HubCentric?
And What size do you want?

brucelidat

Dunno, I have z1 spacers. I figure as long as they're reputable and are hubcentric, they should all be fine for spacers.

The Project Kics are available with or without hubcentric rings. The advantage therein is that if you get some aftermakrket wheels that don't require the spacers to be hubcentric, you can just remove the optional ring.
