Tien S Tech Lowering Springs & H&R 15mm Spacers

IMO 20mm all around or 15mm front and 20mm rear is $$$. 20mm won't rub no matter how low you go, tucks right in.

Gotta disagree on that. Have Swift springs and 15mm spacers on all four corners (stock wheels and tires). My rear sidewalls extend beyond the wheel wells, and would most surely rub if I dropped much lower. Glad I went with 15's vice 20's.

Agreed. 20mm is good for non-nismo. Nismo wheels have more aggressive offset so 15mm will be ideal.

Yup...I asked question and read through lot of post before pulling the trigger on my setup and the consistent answer was 15s all around. IMO from reading what other say that know a lot more than me, is that you would probably be okay with 15s in the rear an 20s up front, but you definitely will need camber arms all around if you don't want to replace tires every other time you change your oil! LOL

ive been a firm believer in 15mm all around. but im toying with the idea of doing 20mm up front, and leaving the 15mm in the rear.
