Spacer help

i want to put spacers on the stock 19s of my coupe.. what size spacer will make them flush or even a little passed flush?
and i have heard that putting spacers on your car affects something to do with the camber.. can someone explain this to me? will it damage my car at all?

thanks in advance

25mm all around, or 25/30mm. But I think you might have to roll your fenders with the 30mm spacers. Are you dropped? If so, how much?

A drop will affect your camber, I don't see how spacers would. Just get the spacers with the built-in extended studs and you'll be fine.

+1 on rolling fenders with 30mm,I'm running 25 on stock 18s and the rears are just inside the fender. Just make sure whatever spacer you buy is hubcentric.

as far as his question goes for damage or effecting camber, is there any truth to this, someone shed some light. Also, why are spacers so **** expensive, i was thinking of just a small spacer kit 15mm in front and 20 mm in back and its like 120 bucks a piece, its a freaken large washer, why 120?

I'm running 15 front, 20 rear. I probably should have gone with 20/25. My back currently tucks alittle, but I don't/won't have to roll my fenders if I decide to go lower.

Ok, I read all the posts and its all confusing responses.

On a STOCK G35 Coupe 19" Wheels (NO MODIFICATIONS)

20mm Front and 25mm Back the way to go?

OR

25mm Front and 30mm back?

Again, NO MODIFICATIONS will be done (ie: fender rolling)

i personally would go 25/f 30/r. you wont rub at stock height.

+1, def the best way to go.
I've got that setup right now on my car and love it.
I had 15 F and 25 R, but it just looked too tucked in.
I rub a little in the back when going over dips on the freeway but that's because I'm lowered on Tein H techs and did the spring mount mod in the rear.
So if you're stock you'll have no issues.
