And your handling won't feel right with the spacers.

Just curious why think it won't handle right with spacers? If the suspension is setup correctly it shouldn't matter. There are tons of circuit cars that run them, in japan at least. Pan Speed, Re, r-magic exc....

That's what I heard from someone running them. Maybe Srce can explain more instead of just posting an icon, since he does nothing but read about this stuff.

Its true..the cars "neutrality" is gone with the spacres. Just keep your hands on the wheel!



Either use H&R 25 mm spacers, or the Corksport 25mm spacers. Those are both hubcentric.
