I've finished moving to Maryland (Salisbury to be specific) though I was in Baltimore today. This place sucks compared to VA....

Fellas, we got a new addition to the Z owners here. "Husarowns" just got his Z and is from Hampton. Please reach out and welcome him. Hopefully, he'll come out with us. The next big thing is on the 12th right?

Welcome bro, I'm in the Hampton area as well, though right now I'm fighting off a zombie bite. What year and color?

The 12th! We'll meet at 2 cruise for a bit. Stop at the water and bs for awhile. Then head to Blue Pete's for an early dinner and drinks. We should be wrapped up and parting ways no later than 7.

That'll do it!

Since we have new people joining i'm going to post a very brief and quick safety rant....

No tailing or following too closely. No wreckless operation (i.e. no burnouts or excessive speeding), and no needless attraction of law enforcement. We don't take chances. We don't have wrecks. That's that. If you don't like it, tough ****. We are a mature group and we know when to stretch our legs. I'll be in the lead so you'll know when the time comes. Thanks for the cooperation. Keep this **** safe.

See y'all tomorrow.

I wouldn't race with spacers but I see no problems with daily driving on them.

I have track time, Tail of the Dragon time, Hell Bender Time, and other twisty road time on my spacers.
No issues.
Lugs have never loosen on me.
I use 10mm Z1 Hub Centric Wheel Spacers & Extended Studs on my rear wheels.

I would definitely will not use bolt on spacers for any type of performance driving.

Any on front?

Nope.
The reason I have spacers on the rears only has to do with the offsets my Volk Racing rims came in.
I bought them second hand and the previous owner had ordered the front 19x9.5's with +23 offset and the rear 19x10.5's with +22 offset.
Most people get their 19x10.5 rears with a +12 offset (19x9.5 fronts with +22 offset).
The +22 offset rears doesn't look as flush as the +23 offset fronts.
With the 10mm spacer the rears effectively become +12 offset thus making the rears look as flush as the fronts.

I wish I had comparison pics at the same angle but this should give you a good idea.
