Whoops I already made this thread. Let me re-read it.

dmhenderson · 02-07-2013, 08:25 PM

So again, what I'm looking for is :
-Safe
-Looks good with the car not lowered
-Tires don't extend past the fenders.

Can I get a consensus here?
I'm looking at H&R 20mm all the way around?

Are DRM the ones with stud replacements or is that DRS?

dmhenderson · 02-07-2013, 08:38 PM

Also need recommendations on where to buy them for the least amount of money. Any/all suggestions would be helpful.

(also I'd like to get these before the 18th so I can have D&V throw these on while the wheels are off the car. I get super nervous with those powdered wheels)

Send a PM to Jomer here on the forums. He ships out pretty fast (from PA I believe) and always has great prices.

I got my dash kit for the Altima from him within 3 days. Did the whole transaction over the phone.

dmhenderson · 02-07-2013, 10:09 PM

Emailed him. Thanks.

dmhenderson · 02-08-2013, 08:23 AM

Ok so I'm about to buy these things. I think I'm going to do 15f/20r.

Can anyone tell me if this is going to look good with the car not lowered? I really don't want to do this and have it come out looking awkward.

This is what I am considering. PM Happytheman or look for him in the WDYDWY Z Today (Off-Topic) thread. He has pictures of 15f/20r spacers at stock height. Looks good imo

Masa · 02-08-2013, 08:34 AM

15/20 unlowered will be fine.

A lot of the guys lowered are running 20/20 or even 20/25.

dmhenderson · 02-08-2013, 08:37 AM

Right because lowering needs a higher offset to make the wheels sit flush. That's why I was nervous about going 20/20 with the car not on springs.

dmhenderson · 02-08-2013, 08:51 AM

Sold.

dmhenderson · 02-08-2013, 08:51 AM

And to be clear, I want the DRM flavor with the extended lugs on an un-lowered car, right?

NO!

You need the DRS for the 15mm fronts... you will have not be able to mount the stock wheel on the DRM 15's... or the spare.

15 and 20 DRS for safety. Installation is easy and worry free.

These are on Stock Sports, Nismo should be close...

i bought my spacers from z1. there good quality. and now on sale from what i see on the website.

JARblue · 02-08-2013, 09:00 AM

I'm not sure the brand is that important - I have H&Rs. I would just make sure to get extended lugs for any spacers
