[QUOTE="t2ribena, post: 601473, member: 3847"] my point earlier is adding spacer excessively is not going to improve handling as all cars has their own steering and suspension geometry...by just adding spacer it is misleading to say that it improves handling...then ppl just go and get the thickess spacer that they can fit in front or rear limited by their cars fender limitation...this might if u lucky improves the handling or if unlucky makes it worse... new cars that comes out gets wider track...yes but the car maker do take into account alot of factors like scrub radius, front vs rear track offset and etc... so since we are not so deep into calculating the actual spacer we need to correct the inherent understeering built into the car by the maker, we can just do it by try and error...but by saying more spacer thickness is good is misleading and not true...
