I just bought 15mm spacers off from ebay, from a high rated seller, I want your guys opinion? I purchased 15mm because I just installed 25mm on a friend 350z and I think 15mm may look good on my car, what do you guys think how would it look? Do you have spacers at all? If so, what size?

A few questions: What objective are you attempting to achieve with the spacers? Did you do the calculations to determine whether or not the spacers will cause any wheel fittment issues? Did you purchase spacers for all four wheels? Also, what type of spacers did you exactly purchase?

Want the spacers just for looks, and the spacers will not cause any fitment issues, I know the bolt pattern and my car is it not lowered, and I purchased the spacers just for the rear

Make sure they are hub centric spacers. You don't want to just add the flat ones.

What type of spacers did you purchase? Did you simply purchase the "plate" spacers or did you purchase spacers that have the bolts? If you purchased the "plate" spacers, you'll want to ensure that you have sufficient thread left to properly secure your wheels. :yesnod

True that, but they're the type spacer I'd trust the most. The type of spacer that bolts the spacer to the hub using the factory studs with the spacer studs bolted to the wheel I would not trust; it makes the job easier, but instead of one potential fail point (wheel coming off) you'll now have two. Hopefully you got the flat hub concentric spacer and get longer studs, and more than likely you'll be alright.

Yes, I purchased the spacer that come with the bolts already, is just take wheel put spacers make eveything tight and put wheels back, I saw the plate ones but I don't want to end up screwing my wheels meaning I would not know how to work it .. but I hope nothing goes wrong, this is the spacers I purchased http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=201082682474
