I tried searching but as these are kind of a weird size I couldn't figure out what spacers to run.

I have a 15' Touring, non sport model. I don't plan on lowering but if I do later I'll adjust the setup.

Wheels are 18x8.75 +33 I know I'm gonna need to run bigger spacers in the rear just don't know how much. Help!

Why not just get the proper size and offsets so there is no need to muck around with spacers?

19x9.5+22 front 19x10.5 +12 rear is like the average 370Z "no/minimal camber" fitment.

In the front alone you would need a 20mm spacer to get that kind of fitment and just for safety's sake I would not want to run the 40mm spacers that you would need in the back...

Just get new wheels.

SSR makes MS1s in that size. I only suggest them because they are a mesh style like the XXR.



I personally run their SP1s

I see. A decent set of spacers are going run you a couple hundreds anyway and it will still look terrible because the rears are too narrow. Just sell them and get new.

Thanks guys that's the info I needed. I'll just hold off then and get a set of wheels down the road.

To the person who said I'm gonna spend a couple hundred on spacers so why not buy new wheels? Stock wheels are 18s, if I'm gonna buy wheels I'm buying 19s which means new tires too, so it was a cost difference of $200 or $1500+ which is a huge difference. I'll focus on some other stuff first, thanks guys.

PS I've been posting on forums like this for like 8-10 years so I know how posts can come off wrong, I wasn't trying to be a jerk or anything just explaining my decision. I do appreciate all the info!!
