Its always recommended to change the shocks when lowering. Some people just throw lowering springs on the stock shocks then change them when they blow. Def easier to do both at once though.

Question 20mm spacers in the rear only with stock 19" Sport Wheels

Can someone please confirm that I can install 20MM ICHIBA, version 2
hubcentric wheel spacers on the rear only on my 2009 370z with 19" stock Sport Wheels with no modicifications at all. Will these 20MM ICHIBA, version 2
spacers fit with the stock studs without interferring with the stock wheels? Will the 20mm spacers on the rear only affect my 2009 370z ride quality at all? Please respond to anthony.russo@shearman.com. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks, Tony

I'm using the Ichiba V2 20mm front and rear with no issues, and I used my stock lugs. that's with the stock 19'' Rays

So you're saying the spacers with the built in bolts will work on the front too? Doesn't the stock bolt stick out too far and hit the back of the wheel when it's on?

Since they were installed for me, all they did was to bolt the spacers to the hub and put the wheels back on and used the stock lugs, V2 have no fitment issues like the V1 did. front and rear had no issues, and I have had no problems

Thanks, thats great news.............By the way, did the spacers affect the ride quality at all? Especially, since I want to install the 20MM ICHIBA, version 2
hubcentric wheel spacers on the rear only. Thanks again, Tony
