I have the stock tires, and the rubbing is only on the drivers side, inside the fender, and against the plastic. Also, I have bolt to bolt spacers, and one inch clears b ecause the nismo rims have reliefs in between the lug holes.

Good info on the rims, I was wondering if that was the case. Not a problem on mine cause I have 2" adapters on my rear wheels. Probably need to use open end lug nuts if your rims don't have "relief" and you want to go with a 1" adapter.

BigRiver, I was looking to do 1.5 inch adapters all around on Stock SE rims, you think I'll be okay? I dont' want any rubbing.

I would watch out. take some measurements. i have 1.5" on stock SE Rims. But im running 33" tires and 6" of lift. My left side had no issues at all but i had to do a toooooooon of cutting on the right.

Well I'm not looking to go any bigger than a 32 inches on tires and I'm looking to do 3 inches of lift. I've already removed the skirting cause it makes the front end look a ton better. So where can I expect to run into places that need to be cut?

If you have to do any cutting, it will be on the inner plastic fender.

1" is good. i had a set. the stock lugs go into the spacers and the nuts will go in a bored/drilled slot that it fits in. it comes with new lugs so check what bolt thread it is and you need to get new lug nuts.

ezaccessory.com (where i got mines).

have fun...

i think 2 in the back, 1.5 in the front. 3 might be sketchy because the farther out your rims are, the more stretch it puts on the suspension internal components. but you might be fine.im sure there are people with aftermarket rims that stick out say 2" more and running 1.5" spacers which equals 3.5"
if your 2wd i would just do a titan swap. im not sure how much it all matters.
