time for a spacer

I have an 02 maxima with stock wheels:
I was thinking of getting this for my rear: spacer

i don't want to this problem or this one.

can anyone confirm if the stock 02 wheel is slotted to accommodate the studs sticking out as stated in this post (see post #2)? Anyone have any 1st hand experience with the Ichiba spacer with the same wheels i have?

You're gonna need 25-30mm spacers to get those stock wheels flush and that's just dangerous in my book. Get some aftermarket wheels with proper offsets/widths and call it a day.

If you afraid of all that, then just get yourself a set of ichiba V1s where you have to change your studs. 15mm will do nothing for your stock rims. You need at least 25mm.

yeah, I definitely don't want to go more than 20mm.
I've seen plenty of pictures on the org of cars with 15 or 20mm and i liked the look.
If I got rims with more offset, wouldn't the rear still stick out less than the front? Unless I got staggered rims, then i wouldn't be able to rotate the tires.

if you want it to poke out 38mm or 1 1/2" flush would be 30 mm
