Spacers for stock 18''s?
 
hey everyone i have spent like almost an hour going crazy looking for spacers threads and reading all of them... but it seems everyone has put them on the rays rims... i dont think they have ever put them on the 18''s

so i was wondering would 20mm be good enough for the rear or would i need a bigger wheel spacer like a 25mm i want my rim flush with the body not going in like it is i am going to go with the ichiba v2 spacers since i dont wanna replace the studs...

Also is 15mm spacer for the front good enough? im really sorry if this is a repost but seriously there is soooo much threads on this topic and i got tired of trying to look for someone that has done them on 18''s

One LAST thing... i plan takin my car to the track... as soon as i get some performance parts in.... do SPACERS propose a threat of any kind? can it cause an accident even if i travel speeds of 100+ MPH?

THANKS EVERYONE for there help :tup:

20mm will be fine as yours without spacers already stick out 2mm more than the Rays without spacers do.

In relation to the Rays, your fronts are tucked in 9mm, so 20 would work up front.

You will be fine on the track with type 2 spacers, and even with type 1, if you also install the longer studs with them. I track with the rear 25mm type 2 spacers on mine.

Also. if you want a set of 20mm type 2s, I can sell you a set for 100 shipped (I think Guam has regular postal rates, correct?) The outer edge is powdercoated black on them, but I went to 25s.

Excellent condition. Needed 25s for the track wheels, and that also works for
my nismos, so no need for the
any more

I installed ichiba type 2 , 20mm spacers in the rear and it's perfect. I think the 25mm would be too much. I am still debating what to put up front. Most likely going to just put 10mm up front as the stance now looks very aggressive with the rear out wider. Check my albums for pictures.

But again 25mm on the stock 18s would be too much IMO
