Its already sitting pretty high, I just want some tips on how to make it work at this height, and what you guys would do to make it go lower, without changing tires every 50miles from cutting lol. I do wanna keep this offset though.

Rears showing fender rub





Fronts





And the old z flares that will be installed, might also just put v2 rb flares not sure yet.

coefficient of rub is directly in-proportionate to the angle of the dangle.

SPACERS OR NOT MY WHEELS STILL HIT THE FENDERS
By reading some of the responses I can tell some guys aren't very intelligent, few helpful comments, but seems as if everyone is in tldr mode or just a lot of jealousy b/c ppl here can barely afford rotas or battles, I'll figure something out I'm very smart. Ill build the car how I want with my money thank you very much

Posts thread because cant fit wheels...

Lol if your bank account equates to your brain you'd buy the correct size wheels. Buying spacers so you can fit your off the shelf wheels dont make you baller.

[1988montecarloss]

$775 for spacers? are they made out of fucking gold?

the most expensive custom adapters you can get from adaptec are like $300 and those are 100% custom to your specs

[PeaceOnesxWai]

LOL at the size of the spacer

Just read here, this is the difference between a quality spacer, and a cheap Chinese metal shaving spacer Like i said, when I invest in something I do it right

[PeaceOnesxWai]

LOL you got sold by the brochure

[jaysgottaredtop]

TIL quality spacers are $700+ dollars, and anything less is made of cheap China metal shavings.

I wish you had told me that years ago before I bought these ebay spacers that still work fine to this da-

Hey, wait a minute.

OH oh, buying spacers to make your wheels fit as opposed to buying the correct fitting wheels in the first place, DOING IT WRONG!!!

a) Discontinued wheels
b) Even if they were in production there is no offset made like that for the wheel I chose with the look I want keep hating with your fake cf hood stuck in the early 2000's rice40sx fast and furious mode.

to be honest mate i was taking a pot shot at the other dude because he comes across like a dick and constantly shits on people in here yet admits to using spacers on his car.. It had nothing to do with you..

Also my hood isn't fake carbon fibre, its the only brand of fibreglass hoods in Australia that are genuinely legal to use so thats the one i went with..

Also its a 180sx, not a 240sx..

Who ever said using spacers was doing it wrong?

Spending $700 on spacers is doing it wrong. Having spacers, however, lots of people do...

for the size of spacer i was looking for im definitely not going to risk some cheap ebays, and when/if those break, im out a wheel, a bumper, side skirt, possible injury of others etc... Same thing with people buying fake seats, theres a story on another forum that im sure you guys are familiar with, of a guy who had rep seats, that ended up snapping when he crashed, and unfortunately left him paralyzed from the neck down.

How much longer do you intend to fight with quite literally the entire old guard population of zilvia?

"I spent $700 dollars on spacers,
you lowly zilvia peasants should be masturbating to my safety minded image because of my extravagant tastes
.......also I need help on dis wheel fitments. I know what I'm doing because reasons"

vvvvv This made me surprisingly happy while I(internetz) made it despite it totally sucking and all

[MidnightKouki]

There's currently 200mm of ebay spacer on my car all around that just made it through a nice roadtrip and it cost be about 100 bucks USD total shipped to Canada.

He's not with us. He's probably french-canadian.
