Anyone have a setup of 15mm spacers in front and 20 rear?

Jourelemode · 12-30-2009, 05:15 AM

More specifically im wondering if anyone here with sport wheels has that setup? What spacers are you using and what lowering springs? Can you post up pics?Or any other setup that has no rubbing issues. Post up pics and list your setup.

I have 15 front and 25 rears. H&R front and Ichiba rear with eibach springs and Nismo accessory wheels. I had 20mm rears but the original lugnuts protrude through the spacer and prevent mating of my particular wheels. The sport wheels might have a better relief hole on the back, since noone else seems to have had this problem.

I have the 15 front and 20 rears, but I haven't been able to install the damn things yet.

Thanks for the replies guys. Mike can you get shots from the rear encompassing both wheels?

rcz, when you get that done, post those pic in this topic when you got time.

I have that set up now, not sure if I have newer pics, I'll check my gallery.

I can tell you, that there is absolutely no rubbing what so ever, and I'm even running wider tires. 255's in front and 305's out back.

I've got Eibach springs installed, about 1" drop

I started with 15mm spacers all around but the rears still were tucked in more then I would like, so I went with 20mm. You could do 20mm up front with no problems either.

thanks for the pictures, that looks great! Are the ichiba spacer straight bolt on or do you need to replace any studs? How are the ichiba spacers going for you, do they feel pretty solid with no wobble? If I went HnR spacers do they have ones that are bolt on without stud replacement? Thanks again!

With the sizes of spacers you're looking at, stud replacement is absolutely necessary, because your factory studs aren't long enough for the lugnuts to properly attach without being lengthened.

It's really no big deal to swap the studs out..

I should have pictures for you monday night.

the question of the century for me is.. will ichiba V2 spacers work on the front ?

i have 15mm installed on my rear, ichiba v2's and Id buy 20mm for the rear and move them up front if the v2 will fit up front... someone else said all that needs to be done is remove the bolt that stops the rear tires from being installed on the front, is that accurate ?!?

Because if I can I will have that setup by next week...

for now i have 15mm v2s on the rear, and z1's 5mm on the front...

v2 15mm will not work on the front. The wheels hit the studs.

I have 25mm v2's up front on the base 18's (winter set), 25mm spacers are wider than the studs so they work. 25mm is wider than most would go with the sport wheels though, if that's what you have. Not sure if 20mm would work, since you have them on the rear you could try moving them to the front to see...

Josh, thanks for the helpful info...rcz, i cant wait to see ur pics!

I have 15mm on the rear ... and they are v2. So its prob no good.. And yea i have the 19" rays wheels...

Maybe I'll sell the set of 15mm... and swap to 20s but the 15s certainly look way better and more aggressive than the stock setup, but 20mm is ideal for those looking for the flush with the fender look on the 19s.. the stock 18s are a little more tucked in the rear so I would def go atleast 20mm if you have the OEM 18s
