I love the camber look too but not on the stockies haha. I definitely think you could roll with 10s now, probably even 15s TBH. But like I said earlier, your best bet would be to measure the distance between your fender lip and the sidewall of your tire in order to get a better idea of what spacer you can/can't fit. That way you can't blame me when you're rubbing with the 15s on LOL

I got my spacers from here. Add the two sets of 15s and enter LOYALTY as the coupon code and you'll save like 45 bucks on them. Good deal
Thanks for posting that website and discount code. I would like to order spacers for my 2008 G37. Infinity is not an option in the drop downs on that website (Nissan 350z is) and I'm not sure which system/nut style I need. Can anyone help?

The spacers for the Z are the same as the ones for the G so don't worry

As far as which type of spacers to choose from...

It depends on what type of spacers you want. Would you rather have the convenience of taking them off whenever you want? If so, go with the system 4 style, although you'll be limited to 15/25mm. 15mm should be ok, but it'll be a tad bit tucked. Most people are running 20mm on the stock staggered wheel. Not sure about the 25mm ones. I don't think I've ever seen them on anyone's car. Maybe if you were dropped and had alot of camber, the look will be alright. Otherwise I think it'll poke. Back when I got my spacers from that website, they had alot more options available though. I guess they ran out of all the other sizes.

If you plan on keeping the spacers on for a while, you can get the system 5/6. With these, you'll have to replace your existing studs with the longer ones they provide. With system 5/6 you have the option of going anywhere from 5-20mm.

If I were you, I'd just go with the system 4 15mm spacers. Save up for some bigger wheels and in the future, you won't have to run spacers

Hope that helped.
