I recently installed 20 mm H&R spacers on my rear wheels for my 03 6spd Maxima and boy do I love them. They were definitely worth the $108 from optionsauto.com. Not only do they make my Max look a lot better but they helped with rear handling. I used to have a wiggle in the rear when driving over some roads with slight bumps but not anymore and now I get better stability around turns and corners. Trust me, I can tell a difference. I am planning to get a RSB in the near future to get even more stable in the rear.
The install occured last week and was easy with the help of instructions from http://home.insightbb.com/~davidwhon...cer/spacer.htm. and took me about 1.5hrs working alone.
I would recommend them to anyone!!

 

Nice write up!!!

 

Very nice. I am thinking about these sometime in the future. Just a few questions, how does the car feel during hard turns? I'm kind of scared about additional strain going on the studs and other parts. Is the body lean more faint, or still same as stock? Do you notice any rubbing at all, and if so, are you lowered at all? Thanks

 

The car feels a lot better on hard turns with less body lean. I didn't think the spacers would make a big difference on stability but they did. I didn't notice any rubbing at all and I am not lowered right now. I will lower when I get new wheels in the near future but right now I plan on buying Headers next month. I have 4.5 month old 235/45R17 Toyo Proxes 4's which also help too. The combo is great.

 

Thanks for the response, I will consider these for the spring now.

 

anyboyd know where they can be had at the cheapest?

 

I noticed on the site that they had 20mm spacers then it said after it "(front)". so does that mean they are front only? do you know if they have ones that are rear only then?? I thought it was wierd. I cant wait to get the spacers. I have been waiting around for when I have a few extra bucks when I can get them. I am excited!

 

i never really knew spacers did that much, nice write up! looks like something id wanna do while replacing rotors.
