12x1.5 25mm spacers?

Hey guys, I was wondering if 12x1.5 spacers would fit on a G35 Sedan without any issues? I understand we're 12x1.25, would there be any problems? Just get the proper nut size right, and 12x1.5 lug nuts.

The reason I plan on using 12x1.5 spacers is because it's way easier to find at a good price.

Huh? There is no cost difference between 1.5 and 1.25 thread pitches.

An Ichiba or Project Kics 15mm 1.5 spacer is going to cost the same as an Ichiba or Project Kics 15mm 1.25 spacer...

I understand, but I was hoping to get a used set just because I don't plan on keeping these wheels but I have real bad rubbing issues. It's only a temporary setup, my car rubs so bad now that I can't even drive my car lol. I found a real good deal on spacers, which is why I want to hop on it, and the nuts shouldn't cost as much.

I plan on getting a completely new wheel setup, but as of right now I'm falling behind in school fees so I can't afford to buy a new set yet.

Maybe I'm confused, but how will spacers help your current rubbing issues? Are your wheels rubbing against your calipers or fenders?

My wheels are rubbing against the arm. I have a 9" wide rim in the front with a +12 offset. Where do you think I can buy the studs seperately? I'm getting these spacers for a dirt cheap price.

Against the a arms? Got pics? Don't see why you should be rubbing with that setup.

Yeah, I don't have pictures, my car is really low, I don't think I can even get pictures I put my hand behind my rim and I feel it hitting the arm.

I have a 17x9 +12 rim in the front with a 17/18 stagger. And I have my car realllly low, because I have stretched wheels in the front, so if I raise it there will be a nasty fender gap lol.

For anyone concern, the 25mm spacers fixed my issue. I put 25mm spacers with 12x1.5 thread pitch, and I just got bolts that fit a 12x1.25 to mount the spacers in. And I used 12x1.5 lug nuts, no problems so far.. does anyone have any cons?

My rim does not rub against my arm no more, its barely clears. I'm probably going to upgrade coilovers, because I'm afraid of hitting a mean *** bump and bending my rims and ruining my arms lol.
