tez162003 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I bought some spacers last week, that had no nuts with them, and I saw someone say they use a different taper nut to make it only compatible with Eibach Nuts (which are expensive). So I guess you all think this and its 350z common knowledge? I work in a wheel shop so have ways about this. lol I thought id check to see if this was true. The test: 1 standard 60degree taper nut and a pencil. Rub the pencil all over the taper to allow excess lead to sit on the nut. Secondly insert into spacer, and twist. This will show you what contact you get in the spacer. If you get lots of lead all the way down the taper - happy days. If you get a thin line, taper is different. The Answer: This shows, Eibach spacers are just standard, so if you lose a nut, you do not need to stump out for overly priced Eibach own ones. I got mine trade from Bimecc. about 20p per nut compared to £4 per nut from Eibach Just thought id let you all know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
