I agree, after measuring with a ruler, 15mm for the rear wheels would've been perfect, but I already have the 25mm on so I'm just going to leave them on. I might decide to lower it later on.
And yes, the stock camber seems to push the tires visibly past the splash guards. I didn't know the z came with negative camber so I thought I didn't tighten the wheels enough at first.

That's a good diagram.
Lowering introduces negative camber so this tucks the top of the wheel inward. But you don't want too much neg camber as it puts unnecessary load on the inner side wall of the tires. I too don't plan on lowering it and tried seversal spacer sizes. 15mm is best for the rear imho.  I have other wheels with +24 but 10.5" width so that should work nicely without spacers at stock height. Basically near the nismo wheel size.
