  1. Alrighty, so from what research i did before buying the rims, most people seemed to be able to run 15x8s (0offset) all around on a 280z. Some reported rubbing, others stated with MSA airdam it would fit, still others claimed it was AOK. So, there's a lot of variance, and apparently I should have measured a bit better. 225x50x15 tires, 3mm spacers to clear the bearing caps. Without the spacers, they were just clearing the bumper, but with them on, they rub. From the pictures, it looks like the wheels are sitting unevenly in the wells, but I imagine that's just because of the bumper design. tokiko shocks, should be sitting right around stock height though. What are my options? I'm guessing I can trim a bit away from the front bumpers, but its going to muck up the paint. I could probably fit 215xwhatever up front, but i've already bought the tires. I couldn't locate anything smaller than 3mm spacers.. if i could find out how to make them fit without the need for spacers, i might be OK. I imagine this would mean getting the backs of the wheels machined out, and that sounds a bit dodgy, any way to modify/replace the bearing caps? They're so large, I'm unable to fit centercaps, so it looks a bit crap (even with the spacers). Anything else I can do?
