What size tires ya got on there?

So I am considering my next mod to be lowering springs, the spacers helped flush out the rims but in the front I have a finger a half gap and the rear a 2 finger gap. I was planning on getting 350z H-techs, would that sit fine with the spacers in terms of closing the gap? I'm looking for a conservative drop with nothing too much.

Nice, 27mm F & R additional offset on those wheels fits right.

Re-torque spacer to hub in a couple of weeks and wheel to spacer for safe follow up. 85 - 90ft/lb.

If dropped body is the coupes next step consider to get fender rolled to avoid tire rub.

Update: Spacers have been perfect, I've had no problems with them so far, the 27mm in the front definitely flushed out rims, however, the back although with also 27mm still looks a little tucked in, for those wanting to flush the rear, I would recommend a 30mm+ spacer.

30mm+... man you should have gotten better offsets. 30mm is pushing it I think on the safety thing. Glad to see they are holding up though.

Sell that junk! My bushings were obliterated in a tad over a year. One was totally missing after I pulled it off the car. It was just the metal barrel left inside the arm end. Conveniently for Ichiba they only have a 1 year warranty.

Read many cases of Ichiba products failing. Who wants to buy new camber arms once a year cuz the bushings deteriorate?

Back on topic... All most people pay for when they buy spacers is the name. Its kinda hard for a solid piece of aluminum with a bored ring and 5 studs to fail. Unless you install it incorrectly or dont torque the nuts right. Your OEM studs and nuts are more than likely never going to fail and the new studs get pulled tight once you bolt the wheel on.

Yea, I would have gotten better offsets; but it was OEM 19 rays . I agree though 30mm is definitely pushing it more then I would have done personally, but I've seen some on the forums running 31mm and 35mm wheel spacers.

Yep I've had 4 Ichiba products including the rear camber arms and all 4 of them failed in some way. I will never buy another Ichiba product again.




As long as the bolts are graded strong enough, off brand spacers should be good.

^1 ichiba spacers have failed on me, never will mess with them again. Hopefully my ichiba camber arms are holding up..

nice...you should post a link for ppl looking

nice find mate

Spacers are for show cars that don't move. If you want your wheels to be more "flush", you should buy wheels that fit properly. Mainly, getting wheels with the correct offsets.

There are hundreds of horror stories of wheels coming off or damages done to the rotors because of the spacers.

I have had Kics, Ichiba and ebay spacers before, but i couldn't really tell much difference from the name brand spacers and ebay spacers. They look identical except one came in unmarked white box and one came in Ichiba branded box. And since i went back to stockies 18", i've been sliding around at the track for a couple weeks now, nothing happen to them so far. Currently running on 15mm Ichiba on the front and 20mm ebay on the back.

Do you have any pics of damage from a properly installed spacer?
The above pic looks like a universal spacer was used with OE lenght studs.
I would be interested in seeing some pics of damage (or wheels coming off) from a spacer with built in studs or longer aftermarket studs with/spacer.

I'll post the link to it later on if anyone's interested, I know of the dangers running spacers, but if there properly tightened, it should be fine; countless people on the forums run them, and I have yet to see a thread saying how it wrecked their vehicle.
