Seeing them on another Z? You shouldn't need any IMO.


Here's an example from another members setup

Thanks, but I guess thats with the factory GTR tires. Mine has plenty of room before it reaches the proper flushness. I'll need to take some better pics.

Maybe a 5mm in the rear, but I don't think you'll need to run them up front.

Yea I wouldn't run spacers with those wheels, but would slam it, 20s is too big for this car IMO even though your going with one of the lightest 20s out there.

I would go for a 35 in the rear.
I would never ever get 20's on a z.
19's is flashy enough!

I think you will be okay if you fix the negative camber. That might do the trick without having to install spacers.
