Thread: Wheel spacers

Thats weird.....I put 15mm H&R spacers and studs on the rear of my NX without any problem.

It is a huge improvement,Pedro ....I agree the sunken look was buggin me too.

I'll try and get some pics for you guys of the new spacers I just put on my NX, 25mm in the rear and my wheels are finally flush with the fender, and they match the front. Huge improvement in the aesthetics department.

Those are not factory studs that's why you were able to put a 15mm spacer on

it.




Chris.

he is stating there is nothing wrong with the h&r studs he used

Yep, lol. Completely read that wrong..



Chris.

The Studs H&R sent were too small and did not seat my hub properly. When I installed them they kept spinning. It was a complete nightmare. And googling found that it was a common problem. I will look for my posts on it.

i was just statin he didnt have any issues, not arguing the fact that you have had issues

I just used ARP studs in my NX. worked great...



Chris.

My point exactly....those are H&R studs.
Maybe they fixed the problem.
They were splined and I had to "press" them in by tightening the lugs down on them(as per the instructions) and they would never spin ...no way.
They were splined the same as the factory,but longer.

oh i totaly agree on the sunken wheels....it makes my nx look like a paseo.....




see i did 20mm just so i would be 5mm from flush with the b14 rims i have...im trying to find some 225/45 tires to fit...then itll look flush..

but when moneys right again(whoknowswhenthatmightbe...) im going buy 15x8 rims with like a 15 offset, with the 20mm spacer in the rear, then add 240z fender flares..... like this...


or roll the rear fenders...
