>>>Got bored and put some spacers on...

i believe widening track decreases body roll at that axle, effectively allowing more use of the grip you have. however, doing just the rear increases usable grip at the rear but not the front, introducing understeer.

... kinda similar to having staggered tires with wider in the rear

You got it.



Ha!

Airik, for your CCA Chpater, which class do you run in at the AutoX?

Class B. I think regional classifications are slightly different though.

ooh ok, i thought every BMWCCA followed the Boston Chapters point and class system.

You got it.

Mike, the stance looks straight tough though 8-)

hehe i know!... but function>looks for me :(... i just have to get some wideass wheels :)

You got it.



Ha!

Understuuuuurrrrr FTL (as Chingy would say it)

I like the spacers. I seriously doubt any of you would notice an increase of 16mm in the rear track of a car if nobody told you.

How much are you going to sell the exhaust for?

i'm with you there - hence my sweet rake!

[bimmers4life]

nice exhaust note. It looks cool with the wider track, too bad it upsets the handling.

[MikeK]

probably around $190ish... still not sure

I'm intersted too! lol

Does that include the piping too?

Check PM

If that muffler is dual in and fits the stock piping reasonably, I'm very interested.

Car looks good with the spacers, then again I'm running ET20 wheels with the same tires anyways. ;)

That car does sound badass man....

actually, you have it backwards. increasing the track increases the leverage that the wheel/tire has on the spring, resulting in a lower effective spring rate, which in turn increases body roll. with increased track you'd ideally want to up the spring rate to compensate.
