Large tires with spacers in back affect of drifting
So I wear some big tires to where it's flush with the fender with no spacers. Im thinking about adding 20-25mm spacers on the back to make it look more aggressive. The front tire has a <5mm spacer on it so the large tore does rub on the springs lol.
Questions: Appearance wise, should I go for the spacers on the rear? Front as well? Leave as is? Racecar? How would adding just rear spacers affect drifting? Better worse? No real affect? Would adding front ones too affect it? Suggestions on spacer sizes? Just looking for opinons and info on the effects on drifting and control

I say no. It sits nicely flush where it is; spacers will just make it poke out of the wheel well. What size and offset are your wheels, and what size tires?

If you're having problems throwing the tail out just up the rear tire pressure.

Nice discussion on changing the track width, both front and rear, and the handling effects.
