20mm spacers on rear only ?
 

Hello,
Is anyone out there running H&R DRM 20mm spacers on the rear & nothing up front ? Pro or Cons ??? Every time I walk up to my 2013 Sport Package Z, I think to myself I need to do something about those sunken rear wheel !!!
Thanks for any help and or feedback - Bill Miller

I ran them like that for a little while when I was trying to figure out if I was going to put the fronts on. I thought it looked ok, but I like my 20/20 better. I know I know,:worthless: but I didn't take any

I'm running 20mm on the rear only. But it's due to my SSR wheels offset and running 265/305

for stock 19" wheels, if i was to do it again, i would probably do 15 front and 10 rear if stock height.

both will need to be stud replacement type.

if you're doing just the rear, the car will look odd even though your straight line stability will increase quite a bit.

25 and 30 here on Swifts. something definitively needs to be done. i don't know about doing only the rears though...not a bad place to start i guess.

Got any pics of your Z with the 25/35mm setup? Any issues? I've been wanting to try this out; seems I can go wider than the typical 20/25mm I'm running.

Yep, it drove me nuts for abourt 3months...spacers saved me. The sunken in look drove me nuts

Anyone know why Stillen says the H&R 15mm DRM Spacer will not fit front 370 wheels ???

only issue was the Z1 spacers I bought for the front needed some thin walled socket to tighten them down. they said I shouldn't have gotten a set like that. they wanted me to take them off to check the nut size (i think) before they sent me new nuts, but i was like w/e it's ok. they told me to just buy a thin socket (i'm still not sure what size, just fond a standard socket in the garage; it worked)

handling feels different and feels better than stock definitely.

never any rubbing

I have 20mm bolt ons on the rear and nothing up front running sport wheels. No issues at all

nismo wheels are nice

That's great to hear, any pictures ?

Great Looking Silver Z :tup:

Car is 75 miles away in pieces, when I get it back I can post pics, but don't hold your breath

I originally had 20mm all the way around

Why did you go from 20mm on all four corners to just rear ?
Did you notice and handling differences ?
My issue is that Stillen says the bolt on H&R DRM won't fit
on front with stock wheels and I'm not interest in the long
stud set up due to PA inspection laws.

* any

20mm will, not 15mm.

I must be reading something wrong ?

Lets not use Stillen's website as a comparison

I did a tire rotation and left the spacers on the rear because the front wheels were on the rear. I drove several thousand miles like that.
When I did swap back, I didn't notice any difference, but more than likely because there was so much of a gap.


I really don't get the hold up. If you want 20mm ONLY on the rear, and you aren't a F1 driver, you won't notice a difference.
Buy them, install them, and enjoy it.

Don't buy them from Stillen, many other vendors here that offer better prices and service

I tried to install H&R DRM bolt-on 15mm spacers on the rear with my aftermarket wheels since they have recessed spaces where the protuding stock stud can fit. The spaces are not wide enough so the corner of the stud hits the wheel :shakes head:

Then I asked the vendor if the DRS extended bolt type would work since it would not have to deal with the stock stud hitting the wheel right?

He said it would not work either :icon14:

What am I missing here :confused:

we were talking about the 19" sport wheels. is that wat you have?

Two pages and yet no pictures. Very disappointing.

Here are some pics of a 20 mm DRS installed only in the rear.

Tire specs: 255/40, 295/30 on sport rays:

Hey Angelo,

I'm using a 20mm/30mm H&R Spacers on Stock Sport Wheels, no rubbing issues.

Slight Camber adjustment -2.5 on rears.

I'll post pics when I get home.

Well I did the 15mm H&R DRS Spacers and now I am nice and flush.

Thank you. I meant to type 25/30 spacers. But that's great!

@blueranger those aren't rays tho

I run the same on nismo and enkie wheels and they look pretty much the same. It's only a 5mm difference so not much of a big deal unless you are looking for absolute perfection.

I'll bet he never thought someone would call him out FOUR YEARS after.

Lmfao old as post !
