These spacers are 1.25in / 66.1 bore / 5 x 114.3 (4.5) (Altima spacers from Amazon)

40 bolts later it was installed. If you know how to change a tire you will be ok.

I think it made a huge difference on the car's appearance. I didn't really notice any difference driving.
The wheels are flush/ a little out. If you want it flush/ a little in go for the 1in spacers. (please account for different wheels as well, I have the stock wheels with hubcaps on mine)

Let me know if you have questions.

I'm not understanding why anyone would buy wheel spacers if you didn't need them for caliper clearance. Perhaps I'm missing something?

When you take into consideration all the effort that engineers at RenaultSport, Ford, etc. took to reduce spindle length/hub-level offset in order to improve handling and reduce torque steer on their high-performance models, it is kind of crazy to think people are adding spacers to make it worse. Not to mention all the additional wear... but I guess style sometimes wins out over substance.
