Y23DRH Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 So turns out my all my hub centric spacers are shot on the 350z and need new ones the nuts cross threaded on couple of them but i like things to be spot on so was thinking i have 25mm front already would 30mm fronts be ok as im running 30mm on the rear already arches will be getting rolled as well ???

M13KYF Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 too much IMO. I think there is increased chance of tram lining at 30mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y23DRH Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Yea i wasn't sure the rear seems pretty good on 30mm but wasn't sure about the front i will try fit the 30 up front see what it looks like on the old ones then post up pics to decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliveBoy Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Why not replace the cross threaded studs? It cant be that hard, I'd imagine if you just email the people you got them from they'd help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea could do wasn't sure if they could be replaced will find out cheers matt I'd imagine, that they should press out, as (I presume) the studs would be steel and the spacer aluminium. So it might be quite a simple swap. Or if you fancy 30mm spacers, just do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y23DRH Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 I take it no one has done 30mm fronts would be good to see pics of them on the front any one ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1 HNK Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Not seen 30mm fronts, I had 20mm on my rays and thought it looked pretty good. Not sure it needs the extra 10mm in my opinion but worth a shot if you've got them to try I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSet Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 30mm's on the front will ground on the arch fairly often I would have thought. I worked out that my old wheels had the equivalent of 23mm's and that would catch once or twice a month (and about 20 times on the Wales meet ) Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This'll give you an idea of the setup and the stance. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TADDY Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 All depends on what wheels your running, size? Width? Offset? Tyre size will also make a difference. I'm running 35mm spacers up front with a 19x10j wheel dropped 35mm and have no issues with rubbing as I have a slight stretched tyre. My rear arches are rolled but no point doing the fronts as there already pretty flat as stock. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartynB85 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 It is quite a list there mate, but you do have great taste in cars Do you guys find that spacers affect the handling? I know my sx with 25mm spacers used to love to tram line all over the road.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsniss350z Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I think 25mm on the rear and 20mm on the front with standard wheel sizes and offsets is probably about as large as you can go without encountering problems. Plus these sizes fill the arches just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I run 30mm spacers on the front of the 350 - I can do this as I have +1 wings and the wheels have a stupid 50 offset - handles fine for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
