Usually - unless your tracking the car, your good without them. Only put them in if the alignments can't get where it needs to be.

supposedly, this problem was an easy fix for SPC and the revised arms no longer have this problem.

the reason so many people want SPC arms is because of the massive positive adjustment they allow. i know i definitely need the spacers to get back into spec.

without the spacers and with the arms adjusted as much as possible, i am STILL at -2.9 and -3.0 right now.

Damn dude! I had my car lowered 3", with the SPC's, and never needed the spacers to get in spec, and had room left over.

Anything happen to your car to make it that way? Accident etc?

Opps...sorry. They are a bit overpriced, as most things are form them, but the EVO's are better for the same basic pricing.

I went with the SPC, not for $$$ reasons...by for me, why spend double for the same effect/solution...

ISMSOLUTIONS was also using the unrevised arms though and had to modify his fenderwells to stop the knocking, so its still the ideal setup

Yea...it was slammed..just have the 19's on in the older picture, so harder to notice. I only had it that low for about 3-4 weeks anyways.

I couldn't get a finger in anywhere...
