I checked my fender earlier this morning. Looks like I am not rubbing the fender but the little bump of the fender lining where the bumper meets the fender. It seems as if my tire scraped some of the lining off already. I'll take a picture tomorrow to show what I'm talking about. I wonder if I ccan just cut that piece off...hmm


Also my coilover are out of the box settings. I may have to play with the damping or rebound. Not sure how to approach that yet.

Anyone have the problem of installing 20mm spacers with the bolts built on, in the rear, and the stock studs extend past the spacer...causing the wheel not to sit flat against the spacer. How do I fix this if my wheel doesn't have a space for it. It makes me quite nervous that it will fall off. Should I shave down the stock studs or dremel into the rim? Please help.

Nah man you can't put on those type on the rear. The built-in bolt style spacer has to be a minimum of 25mm. Anything smaller and you have to do bolt replacement.

So just take those off man and replace them with the right type.

exactly. If you really want that type on the rear, you will have to replace the studs with shorter ones.

As long as you use the Version 2 (Bolt on style) you'll be fine on the rear. The recesses are deep enough on the wheel to accommodate the protruding studs. You cannot use this type on the front though

Not using stock rims, so the back doesn't look like that. And there was no place for them to sit. I took them off, waste of money blah. So on 25mm the stock studs don't extend past the spacer at all? The rims were pulled off my old g35 and weren't wide enough in the back.

Saw a couple of old link from last year LOL, but where's a good place to get H&R 15mm DRS series spacers..??
Any Vendors here worth talking too.?

I may have to run 15mm front and rear on a Nismo, shouldn't be an issue if I plan on lowering on Tein springs right..??
