If I go with the 20mm spacer can I avoid this, keeping in mind that I will also be dropping it with the Eibach's. Thanks for the help, gotta love the forum!

Is that camber? Is there much adjustment there? How are other 370z's with spacers keeping there wheels/tires looking perfectly vertical. Please let me know if I am not making any sense? I appreciate all your help!

This should answer the camber questions, borrowed from a vendors thread with Eibach Pro-Kit specs with OEM set up and camber after install of Eibachs.
