Default In need of a 7mm spacer

I've looked all over the place and all I've found was a "universal" 7mm spacer.. I'm looking for a hubcentric one and can't seem to find any manufacturer that makes it in the 370z bolt pattern... Maybe someone else knows a source for one?
Thanks!

will 7.5mm work? Z1 has hubcentric 5 and 2.5 mm spacers.

Just go with a 5mm or a 10mm... They usually only come in 5mm incriments and if you run a 5 mm spacer you wont notice the 2mm difference... Its less then a tenth of an inch...

There is no such thing as a hub-centric spacer for anything under 10mm as the stock hub ring will still be protruding. The 5mm will just be a flat ring with a hole the same size as the hub ring. 10mm could have a ring extension but be careful as it will be fragile due to wall thickness.
