    What do people think? I think they would look great, how are they for stability and are they good at the top end 175 + of the car / track etc.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    I think that a lot of people would say that the idea of spacers is ridiculous. It would mess with well-engineered geometry. But I would like to know if there is a way to make it work for the better of the car- not just asthetically.
    Looking forward to some enlightenment. Good Luck

    I'd be Very uncomfortable w wheel spacers in any car at high speed

    They can come apart & if they do your car may come apart next

    I investigated this week... the most you could put on is 10mm... when the car is at 3/4 bump or more, the wheel goes close (12mm?) to the wheel arch....

    I advised the customer to not bother.

    can they be used on a boxer too? it would be nice to have the rear track a bit wider so as to fill out the fender well. can it be done?
