custom wheel spacers for 6th Gen
 
I had a little mishap with my car and ended up needing a spacer. I found a place about 2 miles from my house that custom-machines spacers. When I showed them my damaged spacer they said they not only could make it but instead of using that crappy plastic adaptor ring that comes with most spacers, they can machine the spacer to fit my hub AND my rim. Any how, they made 4 of them but I only needed two. They are hubcentric, 10mm thick and drilled for the Maxima lug spacing. If anyone needs these or any custom spacers you can contact them directly - Ace Motorsports - 909-981-3860. They are located in Upland, CA.

holy crap that is a lot of rust... what do you do drive around in a swamp all day?

hubcentric spacers don't all have plastic rings, you can get vehicle specific spacers for 60-80 bucks a pop with metal rings

Im not familiar with driving in swamps, but apparently you are :laugh: j/k I havent driven the car in a couple of weeks and it has rained during that time.

ANYWAY, Stillen sold me H and R hubcentric spacers with the plastic rings. These spacers do not come with any rings but are solid aluminum. I only needed one, but I bought two because I felt that solid spacers were better than spacers with plastic rings. He has two more left but can build any size custom spacers. I just thought Id pass on the info to you guys needing or wanting spacers.

My H&R spacers were hubcentric with the rings built into them. But from what I understand, Ace Motorsports can machine a spacer where the inner diameter of the hubcentric ring is the same as the Nissan hub bore size and the outer diameter matches the wheels hub bore size. In this case, if the wheels they were designed for have a larger hub bore size and the spacers are made for that larger size, you wouldn't be able to use the spacer with any wheels with the OEM (or any other smaller) bore size.

VQ'rInWLA, you might want to check what the outer diameter of the hubcentric ring is first, or maybe Deus can supply us with the bore size of his wheels. If they don't match your wheels, you'd be better off not getting them since you probably won't find any hubcentric rings to match.

OFF TOPIC: what brackets are you using for your z32 calipers(blemco), you got lot more rotor coverage than me

VQ'rInWLA 05-26-2011 07:55 PM

Will call em tomorrow. Did they provide extended studs too?

mr.jame 05-27-2011 10:54 PM

what size are the spacer?

VQ'rInWLA 05-27-2011 10:56 PM

It says 10mm...

DeusExMaxima 05-28-2011 12:30 AM

Spacers are 10mm thick, inner diameter is 2.6 inches and outer diameter is 2.88 inches.

Would the spacer work for both side front and rear?

VQ'rInWLA 05-29-2011 01:18 AM

yes

That equals 66.04mm and 73.152mm, so I'd say it's probably 66.1mm inner and 73mm outer (or could be 74mm, but I think 73mm is more common).

Not a big fan of spacers, but HubCentric by H&R is the best way to go...
