Do I have to replace the studs in the front for a 20mm? I'm trying to get h&r 20mm DRM bolt on spacers but, on stillens website says it won't fit in the front.

Just did B2autodesign spacers
Got some spacers at B2autodesigns from Charlie and Adrian. Great folks to work with BTW.
Did 20mm bolt on's front and back on a 2012 Roster Touring with Sport Package. Used B2's 20mm spacers and had no trouble along with saving 50 or 60 bucks. AFAIK the quality of the B2 product was fine and hub centric, get back to you if they fly off ;). The 19" Rays actually have a relief on the back side of the rims to accept the protruding studs. Makes me wonder if 15's would have worked on the front without requiring stud replacement, the extra 5mm is less than .2 of an inch. 20's do look good. |
What's the point of a hub centric spacer if the wheel is larger? I know hub centric is for a tight fit. For example the rotor is about 65.9mm outter diameter and the wheel is about 66mm inner diameter. Obviously the wheel fits nice at tight. Aftermarket hub centric spacers seem to come 66.10mm inner diameter to fit over the rotor and I'm sure 65.9mm to fit the factory wheel again for a nice tight fit.
But if your aftermarket wheels are say 73mm bore then whats the point of having a hub centric spacer? The spacer is no longer making contact with the wheel. Why not just run a normal flat spacer at that point since the wheels only being held on by the lug nuts anyways. |
Is the increase in negative camber from adding spacers enough to dramatically increase tire wear? Im debating if its worth getting an alignment done. I do like the more aggressive look however.
|
Can someone link me to the proper length studs for use with 8mm spacers? I found a bunch of Ichiba ones on ebay, and know that they need to be 12x1.25, but am unsure on the length. Thanks
|
^^ Just get the extended Nismo studs.

I got my car aligned and the camber changed both front and rear. Only slightly but enough to throw the alignment off.
|
I'm looking into getting 15F/20R mm DRS H&R spacers from the stillen website. The price is listed as $103. Is that by the pair or individual? Sorry if this is a stupid question :\
|
Should be per pair

The farther the wheels move apart the angle between the wheel and the axle becomes larger. Thats what I believe causes alignment to change. Not sure what other factors though

Are H&R bolt-on spacers hubcentric? If so, I'll get them right away!
|
Any pics of spacers for the perfect stance with Swift Springs? 15/20 or 20/25?
|
Plenty of pictures on the forums, but for a few millimeters of poke, 20/25 is the way to go!
|
Do stud-replacement spacers require retorquing after driving or is it just for bolt-on spacers?

for stud replacement type, you just retorque the lug nuts. for bolt-on type, ive been using loctite blue on the inner nuts and let them dry overnight. no need for retorquing those, but i still retorque the wheel lugs that hold the wheel to the spacers. |
I thought this was a descent video. Pretty basic, but well explained.
|
What kind of or brand of spacers did you use? I have a 2014 370Z with the stock 19's and would like to put 20mm bolt on style all around spacers. I was told by Stillen that the H&R's 20mm bolt on would not work on the front, that is the reason I ask.
|
I did H&R 25 mm in rear with stock 19" sport rays & 275s
Sits & clears perfectly - no rubbing http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...ps52a2f808.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...ps3be4128c.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psac08a295.jpg http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...ps8730bd12.jpg |

Has any body had any issues with alignment getting all messed up after installing these? so i have a 2010 sports package. thru on the bolt on 20 mm in the rear and 15 mm with stud replacements on the front. my left rear looks so off when it comes to camber. i mean it has gotten so aggressive that the it is noticeable by eye..
i am deff need to get an alignment done, but this all happened after i threw on the spacers... |
Spacers alone won't change your camber settings the way you describe. You may have had a loose bolt on the camber arm and it was bumped during the install process. Get the alignment....
