Spacers or no spacers?

Hi I have a 09 g37s coupe with tein lowering springs and stance sc5 20" rims with 9wide in the front 10wide in the rear, do you guys think I should put spacers on the front? I know the rear is pretty close so if I add spacers back there it will defiantly rub.

Car looks fantastic!

Is there any maintenance required with spacers? i.e. do you have to continuously check and/or tighten them? If so - i'd leave it as is!

I think if you rolled the rears and added a 5-10mm spacer it would look extra meaty/aggressive. Car looks great nonetheless

Have any of you guys looked at the rear fenders before? They are rolled from the factory, nothing there to modify.

i think it looks great as is but if you decided to add spacers in the front only, it wouldnt hurt the look

Agree... rear Fenders are rolled from Factory...rears have to be Pulled not rolled. Only the fronts need rolling pending your set up...

You go spacers on the rear you'll rub like crazy.. IMO your looking good... your fronts aren't bad at all for a 5mm spacer 10mm pushing it then roll your fronts... I'd leave it...

Nice Looking G!
