Spacers vs Handling
Searched the forum and could not find an answer so I'm hoping someone here is knowledgable enough to answer.
I know wheel spacers are used to fill out the wheel for looks but what effect do spacers have on the ride and handling feel? How much weight do they add to the wheels?
thanks, Mike

Weight is minimal, effect is minimal.
*85% of this is just getting the car to look the way you want.
This is not a performance mod....regardless what the ads say.
Having said that, it is one of the 1st mods I'd do to a Pcar (along with altering suspension for ride height) while I try to figure out which wheels to buy with the right offset (so I can put the spacers on the shelf).
