20mm spacers + eibach springs won't rub right?
 
I have 20mm spacers all around and plan to do a mild drop on Eibach springs. This won't cause nay rubbing right? I don't think it will, but just wanted to confirm with all you knowledgeable Z people.

You should bo OK. I have 15mm and Swift/Koni with no issue and room to spare.

brucelidat 05-15-2012 05:05 PM

that's what I thought, it looks like there's tons of space now so >1" shouldn't cause any problems. Just confirming with people who know more than me, thanks.

I ran 15/25 with eibachs with no problems.

LakeShow 05-15-2012 05:29 PM

You should be fine.

370zDR 05-15-2012 07:54 PM

I got 20mm all around with TEIN's, no problem.

brucelidat 05-15-2012 09:10 PM

cool, thanks. Did you need an alignment kit or camber arms or anything or just did the springs?

25mm all around with eibachs. no rub. slightly thicker tires too :tup:

leeyeegue 05-15-2012 09:55 PM

I'm running swifts and 25mm all around, no issues at all.

with swifts and no camber kit. I'm at 1.7 front and 2.2 rear.

btw H&R spacers are the best, unbeatable

370zDR 05-15-2012 10:06 PM

If I were to do it again I'd go 20F/25R

Puma0183 05-16-2012 09:15 AM

Im looking in to putting spacers on my car, but haven't decided if 20mm or 25mm, can anyone post some pics of the both of them? I would like to see the diference before buying them. thanks!

What would be the difference if I bought H&R spacers vs. Z1 spacers???

I was asking myself that same question....and or Ichiba for that matter. I am looking at getting the H&R DRM or Ichiba Version II 20mm all around (direct bolt on). From what it looks like is that the Z1 spacers are not type 2 or direct bolt on. Instead they are the stud replacement style. I am guessing it is preference on which style you want.

But I am also curious about the difference between H&R vs Z1....as well as direct bolt on or stud replacement style (pros/cons).

Direct bolt on 20mm wont work on the front, need to use stud replacement if you want to do 20mm or higher, 15mm bolt on's do just fine. There's no problem for the rears, can go either stud replacement or bolt on's.

No real difference between brands you mentioned, they are all top quality, at the end You are paying for brand name. I'm running 20mm Ichibas all around and parts finish and fit was perfect, no vibrations.

leeyeegue 05-16-2012 03:25 PM

HR is so much better made IMO. Like I could tell the difference immediately. Also I ready a lot of bad reviews about ichiba like how they broke etc.

Bolt on spacers need to be super well made too. If they break.....

brucelidat 05-16-2012 03:28 PM

I have the z1s 20mm all around. i haven't had nay problems with them yet and hopefully never will.

leeyeegue 05-16-2012 03:33 PM

Daily driving I doubt it matters... I autox sometimes so I didn't wanna take any chances lol

Thanks for the info about the 20mm direct bolt on wont work on the front. Now I see why some are going 15mm on front to stick with bolt ons.

I hear you on paying for brand name.

They offer both styles @ Z1. And like he said. The bolt ons won't work in the front.

I hear you on paying for brand name. So unless you want direct bolt ons in the rear then Z1 has a good price on spacers. Then if you are wanting to go higher than 20mm you will have to go with the other brands. As Z1 only goes up to 20mm.

you really need to research this stuff better bruh...25mm bolt on Z1

CNC Aluminum Bolt-On Wheel Spacers (25mm)

You can do 20mm hubcentric in the front. 25mm bolt on in the back with Z1

brucelidat 05-16-2012 03:50 PM

I had to replace with longer studs for mine (z1)

:facepalm:

I do research bruh. I just missed it I see them now at the top of the page. I must of overlooked them as I am looking at going 20mm all around. Apologies to anyone looking for Z1 in 25mm.

Wheels

leeyeegue 05-16-2012 04:10 PM

20mm or above bolt ons work. I think 20mm won't have enough clearance for the studs so the studs won't let the rims fit. 25mm are ok bolt on.
