Stock 19" Sport Rims and Spacers

[DeanM45]

Hi all,
Would like input from anyone running an Eibach Pro kit on their Y50 with stock 19" sport rims. I want to push the rims out a bit to sit more flush with the body.
What size spacers are you running? From what I can gather looking at the lug bolts, 15~20mm looks to be about the max that can be safely run with the stock lug bolts and stock rims.

Any input?

25mm will work too and looks good imo.

In my opinion, 15mm is just right. Sits flush and is not to far out of whack in terms of stress on your suspension and effects on handling(going to far out reduces road feel and reaction to turning).

Thanks for the feedback guys. They're cheap enough so I'll start with 15 and go from there.

I would highly suggest you change out your wheel studs to longer ones if you're going to use spacers.

Anything over 10mm I agree. However for 15mm or greater I'll go with hub centric adapters (bolt to the hub and then the wheel bolts to the adapter).

When you go 15mm or more you can get the ones that have studs built into them eliminating the need to go with longer studs.

^agreed...I once had the H&R (DRM) 15mm spacers -- picked up from Stillen. No need for longer studs.. the spacers held up really good...ended up selling them to another Nico member since I purchased a different set up of staggard 19's... I think they have a good price on them now...check out the Stillen site (it should be under the G35 specs)

good luck...also I should have pix in this site, somewhere ???
