Spacers

Your too funny about the wifey flopping around. I have a 2008 x with the Eibachs and the beefy rear sway bar and I'm looking to add spacers, I don't know what they will do but I imagine they push the wheel out somewhat, will it affect handling in any way or wear out tires, I did not install any camber kits and don't want to.

I've read in a few places that the width provided by the spacers helps with handling. The area I'm skeptical on is the added weight to a rotational mass. I realize these are made to be light weight but unsprung rotational mass has a large effect on power. I'll be interested to see how much its going to affect the car.

If there's something specific you'd like me to compare between before and after let me know and I'll give you my thoughts.

My thoughts are like yours regarding the Eibachs, somewhat bouncy but I guess its because they are progressive, in hindsight maybe the Swifts would have been best but I don't think I will change. Let me know if you decide to go with the spacers, I still would need to do some DD before going forward. I wonder if there is a better suspension set up for our cars. Drove to Maine in my wifes 328 2013 coupe and those cars just handle great.
