Thanks fellas! It's the lighter color of the car definitely offsets the wheels. I've gotten compliments already and I've only had them for a few days. Now I need to lower the car a little bit to close of that gap. If Zro ever get coilovers, then I may buy his Tanabes.

^^^Yeah about $163 shipped. You can get them even cheaper than that but $160 is already low enough IMO. It dropped the car about an 1" in the front and about 1.5" in the rear. If you want to go ahead and get them, Reraise, we'll help ya put them in. Cris, the wheels look hot BTW!

Not if I go slow but if I ever get a new front bumper I think I'll be screwed.
I was at the Rio last night, though, and about had a heartattack....their speedbumps there are total bullsh!t. No reason to have them that high and two of them so close together.

Sweet, I might take you up on that.... Id have no clue how to put em in, and that inch really makes the car look a lot better....
Course Mike (350ZNV) sent me over to that site with about 1632 different wheels to choose from and its hard to make up my mind heh....

Depends on your wheel face and lug nut choice. I'd go with the 60mm incase you need a bigger spacer.
Also spacers are perfectly safe as long as you use bolt on kind and not the lame shim ones.
Still, nothing beats getting proper offsets in the first place (not always an option with used wheels).

those would eliminate the need for longer studs. they are high quality and you can find some write ups from guys that use them on the other 350z forums..
my wife just ordered me some for christmas.
15mm for front and 20mm for rear

I've had 25mm spacers on for about a year now (rear only). Got the 60mm studs to go with them. I believe the general rule is you need longer studs if you go over 15mm. I take them off when I track it, otherwise they are always on. Go to wheelspacers.com, this guy named Fred Goeske makes every set according to your specs for a good price. Think my 2 were $120 shipped. He's a trip to talk to, he helped me with a lot of questions I had about the whole process.
