Fx50s
im a new owner in the UK of a 50s
Looking to put some spacers on but have a couple of queries.
Are they OK to use with the 50s having rear wheel steer?
Also the best priced ones I've seen are from wsa-auto/extreme over in the US..I wondered if anyone had used these since they are much cheaper than the h&r ones that I would normally buy.

Thanks
 
Get the H&R spacers, they make an excellent product. I run them on my 50S.
 
Just to check
Are the other Infiniti/ Nissan models the same fit? I'm not finding listings for Fx but some for G37 or maybe 370z/GTR
Cheers
 
Yes, all of those models have the same specs as our FX.
 
Procare look fine but how do you actually buy some?

Ignore that,just watched the vid...plenty of info on there.(y)

Rear steering shouldn't effect anything.
FYI I have the 50S wheels on my QX70S. I run Pirelli 275s with H&R 15mm spacers in the rear (no spacers up front) - very balanced and flush look. Some people here like it more aggressive, but I wouldn't do it any other way.

Looks great.
I have 4 new tyres on so will be with the 265 for a while. I was intending to go 20 rear and 15 front.
 
you just email them from their website with the specs you want and shipping address they they send an invoice via PayPal when you are ready to move forward.

15mm front and 20mm rear are perfect. That is what I went with and they sit near flush.

Definitely go with 20mm on the rear that is what I'm running now, I had 15 out back and it wasn't enough.
 
Fitted now. 20 rear 15 front
Really happy with back and front looks good too. However I'm not 100% happy with the steering. It kinda seems a little loose now,almost like the spacers have shown up a bit of slack. It's only slight but I'm easily irritated lol.
I'll double check everything tight tomorrow and then decide.

Must say the back end looks great now. Made the car look bigger and more squat.....although you guys already know all this!
 
You've widened the track of your car which may impact how it steers and handles. But usually spacers don't cause any measurable changes in either since 15 and 20 mm each side isn't that much. Keep driving to see if it's just psychological. The only thing to check with spacers is whether or not you've tightened the bolts correctly and if you didn't, you'll find out pretty quickly.
