That will give me 15mm, 20mm and 25mm to tryout, then sell the size I do not use.

Yeha they'll work fine, just remember with eibach the look will not be the same, the rear may seem to stick out further if you only go with springs.

H&R wheel spacer part numbers
 
Here are the H&R wheel spacer part numbers for:

15mm DRS - part # 3065662 (DRS is stud replacement)

20mm DRS - part # 4065662 (DRS is stud replacement)

25mm DRM - part # 5065662 (DRM is bolt on)


H&R mfg web link:

2003 Nissan 350Z Applications || H&R Special Springs, LP


The sport rims for the 370Z have the same bolt pattern as the 350Z.

The best source and pricing I have found is through one of our sponsored vendors. Stillen: contact Josh@Stillen on this forum for some killer prices and top notch service. :tup:

Thanks Josh, I have SPC rear camber kits, to dial em back in with. What camber are you running in the fr and rear with your 1.4" drop? I would think with that kind of a drop that you would need upper control arms.

-2.4 rear and around-1.4 front. No arms in the front, totally stock

RCZ 02-14-2010 12:33 PM

Sent a PM to Josh, damn you RCZ. ;)

Question: initially i like the look of the 20mm (F) and 25mm (R), however as my rear tires are wearing out I'm going to be replacing them with 285 rears....do you think i would achieve the same look of 20/25 going 20/20 with those 285 rears??

ZForce 02-14-2010 02:03 PM

^Good question, it was brought up here http://www.the370z.com/309642-post9.html and also look further into that thread for some additional feed back.

IMHO I would prolly stick with 20mm rr wheel spacers if I was planning on over sizing the rear tire on replacement to anything wider than the 275 stockers.

Other members that are more knowledgeable in this area (RCZ and Mike) than me and whom I believe are running over size tires on their stock 19" sport rims and also have wheel spacers may want to chime in.

Mike 02-14-2010 02:10 PM

I would stick with 20s on the oversized tires. I just switched from Eibach springs to the suspension out of stormcrow's Nismo, and with 25s, the rears actually stick out of the wheelwell a little now. No rubbing because the tire swings inward at the top as the suspension compresses though, but I'm not sure I'm liking the look too much now.

I agree with Mike. I only went with 15s on the rear, and no front. With the stock 275s I am close to flush. When I go with 285s the look will work for me. If I had gone 20, I would have had to do front spacers as well. So I am saying I think you will like the look of 20mm rear and 285 tread. Mike knows, if he says the 25s stick out of the wheel well, I would definitely agree.

unfortunately, my wheels require 25s, as the stock studs protrude on a bolt on 20mm and the nismo wheels don't have the clearance behind them that the stock wheels have.

And, my track wheels require the 25mm spacers, although I may consider going to 15mm spacers front and rear in the near future, I just hate changing wheel studs on the rear.

Remember that while the tire may be a bit wider, its still going on the same rim. The visual effect is not very dramatic, it will look very similar to the stock 275.
