Thanks this is type responses I was looking for, somewhere we drifted off into a very interesting physics disscusion on aero dynamics.

The wheel spacers i just installed actully added some traction, she doesnt try to break traction as soon in the roundabouts. I put brand new tires last year Michelin Sports 2’s or 3s I think, next time might look for something stickier.

So no noticable effect!

Ummm... b/c at the end of the day it's all about physics.

Just like spacers... as spacers themselves per se can't "add" traction... oh nvm

Good luck
