30mm spacers too much? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have an s13 w/ s14 5lug/LCA's. (IIRC that means that I have 10mm more offset than stock?)

I am trying to run some hoosier r3s04's 245/45/17 on my 5zigen FNO1RC's
17X8 +25 offset.

I have coilovers

I posted a few months ago with this problem and was told that 15mm spacers should work.... I have found some mustang spacers on ebay for about $50 cheaper than all others

ebay link

These are 1.25 inch ~ 30mm

My question is:

Will this clear the fenders? Or do I need the 15mm?

The fenders are rolled, and stock so I dont care about beating the shit out of them to make the tires fit.

TIA

there probably isnt a need for 30mm spacers, but like everyone else said, dont go cheap on stuff like that

well from what i was told, those are cheap spacers. i have a link about that in the chat forum. search thread user silviadriver chat forum only and youll see all the threads i started.

if your not sure about the LCA thing slap on the wheels with the tires, and measure from the tire till it hits the fender and thats how much of a spacer you need.

i am going to run 30mm spacers on my car as well
