Need help with spacers

I have a 2004 Infiniti coupe with brembos. I am trying to run (4) 18 X 7 1/2 OEM rims that are 10 spokes.... The 2 rear ones fit well but i have Brembo brakes and the front 2 just barely rub on the calipers. SO it is obvious I need spacers for the front. I was thinking of just getting 3 mm in the front because it will def clear after the brake caliper then. do i alsno need to get spacers for the rears????? what would a suggested set up be? do I HAVE TO get extended studs? THANK ALL FOR YOUR HELP

you dont need spacers in the rear if you put them in the front it doesnt change anything. 3 mm is hardly noticable. you dont need extended lugs with 3 mm. you can get away with 5 mm as well. any more than that you should have them. i dont think 3 mm come in hubcentric though. i had 15 mm so i dont know. good luck

I would recommend extended studs for the 5mm spacers. It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to a critical part like your wheels.
