Re: Wheel Spacer Decision

Hello guys i am finally getting a set of H&R spacers for my 02 maxima. Now, i cant decide what size to get. I want to even out my rear tires to my fronts would a 15mm be enough or should i go with 20mm.

cool so a 20mm spacer would be the ideal size. Would 20mm align in my fronts

I had H&R 20mm spacers on the rear and 15 mm spacers up front with 235/45/17 tires on OEM TE rims (45 mm offset). Both front and rear wheels were flush with the fender.

how much you pay for it? i'm thinking of either 20mm or 25 mm in the rear. some say that you can squeeze another 5mm to their 20mm spacers in the rear, making it a 25mm spacer. 10mm in the front is ideal

Are you putting them on the stock rims? If you're going aftermarket, I'd suggest just getting rims in correct offsets for your application...

OK now that i finally got the spacers done on the rear of my car, do you think that its neccesary to get a set of spacer to the front wheels. I am thinking 5mm to 10mm.
