Slammed on Stock 18's.. how about Spacers?
 
I'm on BC racing coil's right now on stock 18's and I won't be getting wheels anytime soon because I invested in to a new dslr/photography equipment for my side job. Told myself why not keep a clean stock look while I'm saving up (a long saving wait) :cool:. I'm slammed on the 18's right now with a nismo bumper and it looks pretty weird with the stocks tucked in. It looks awesome from the side, but any other angle, it just doesn't look right.

I've seen a few G's here with stock 18's and spacers and they look cleannnn:bowrofl:. but the point is, what size spacers should I get for stock 18's to make it flush with the G? Does the brand matter?

Thanks guys! i'll put current pics up later when I have time

Is your camber corrected?

Your rims will look considerably more tucked if you're running excessive negative camber.

If you've had everything aligned, (I'm assuming you have the stock 7-spoke boat anchors?) then a 20mm spacer all the way around should even things out without getting too aggressive.

If you haven't aligned your car I would suggest doing so, and then measuring how much clearance you have. After you've measured you can of course purchase the right spacer for your needs.

I haven't gotten my camber corrected.. How do I do so? A Camber kit? I haven't gotten an alignment yet but I will once I get the spacers this week. Yes I have the 7 spoke anchors
, but how does the spacers even things out? And you're right, the rears are cambered noticeably because of my drop. planning to go lower once I get the spacers

Thanks for the replies guys, they're all helpful! Sorry for the amount of questions, I just want to get a clean flush look correctly :)!

they're real nice. I'm 2 clicks away from the softest setting and they're near oem.. just a little on the stiffer side. I DD on a slammed drop, maybe it has to do something with its stiffness? Idk, but I got used to the bumpy right. They were the best price/quality on my budget.:)
