So I recently posted a pic of my 04 sedan with 350z springs and was told my offset looked off. Im assuming spacers will fix this?? I searched but it seems spacers are Dependant on ride height, rim and tire size. So Im not 100% positive what should go on my car.

Pics of car


















Car is an 04 sedan w 350z springs, Rims are 19x8, tires are 225/35/19.
I was thinking 5mm for the front and 10mm for the back? and what brand should i get? are they direct bolt ons or do i have to mod anything?

Thanks

edit;

Also, would I be able to get 350z lowering springs w/o changing my shocks and struts. Or would I have to get 350 shocks and struts to put on 350 lowering springs?

Bump, C'mon guys. I'd like to order them online before the end of the day if it si n fact what I need.

 

I would go with 5 in front and 10 in the rear. As for install, you would have to pound out the old studs and put the longer ones in. I am sure someone could chime in about if you need bigger spacers or not. Or you could do this route. Buy the 15mm spacer so they bolt right on and if they dont work, do a trade with someone for smaller ones.

 

Yeah I rather do it as easy as possible. So the 15mm require no modification?

And when you say that "in case they dont work", do u mean in case they dont fit or in case it loos funny because the off set is too much?

 

yeah eibach and project kics both have 15mm that dont require to pound out your old studs. As for in case they dont work. Yeah maybe it will push out the wheel too much. Can you find out the offset of those wheels you have now.

 

If you're happy with the way your wheels fit, then you don't need spacers. A lot of people are big supporters of flush wheels (myself included), where the tire and wheels are as close to the fender as possible.

 

The offset currently is 35mm I believe; thie Axis website says 2 1/2 inches.

I have the 19X8

 

yeah but I think Im a bit pass flush, its rather tucked.

 

They almost look to tucked to be +35. I know on the back of my wheels, it says the size and offset.

 

Well Im pretty sure it is 35mm. The tire says ToyoPROXES 4 225/35R19 88W, so wouldnt that make it 35mm?

 

No that is the sidewall for the tire.

 

Well how bout this ( I have 19X8)

isnt 2.5" the same as 35mm?

Other than that I dunno, I suppose I could dismount the tire and see what it says in the back

 

All you have to do is measure the amount you want to move the wheel out, and buy a comparably sized spacer.

 

lip size does not translate directly to offsets.
