I have room up front to push out my wheels about one inch. Where can I get 4 lug spacers? If I played my cards better, when I got my Panasports I would have had two made with a different backspacing to allow for the more room up front, but I was not wise. Are spacers generally considered ok for this? I know I would have to have longer lug bolts, or have longer studs put in. Anything else?

QUOTE so, YOU are a race car engineer? Nope. Never claimed to be. I am an automotive journalist and a crew member on a professional race team. Nothing fancy but, at least on this subject, I know what I am talking about. Hell, at least I read the books! What do you do for a living, Andy? Is there a Barnes and Noble near you? QUOTE i do not claim mastery, but i do claim that your argument has significant flaw You claim to know better than people who earn their living in race car engineering and you certainly think that I, a mere mortal, could never grasp the concepts you claim dispute that collected wisdom. Sorry, but those three guys have a thousand times more credibility with me than you could ever have (until you prove your stuff in racing and write books other race car engineers hold as sacred as the Bible). Your post count and admin status do not impress me and nothing you have said suggests I should reevaluate that position. I'm sure you are a cool guy, but this pissing match is just making you look foolish. What flaws are to be found in advocating erring on the side of caution or even knowing the definition of one of the most basic automotive terms? This is not rocket science...it's far more important. |
