Default Stance Question

Hello Gents,

Here's a picture of my car and current specs I'll address my question below:


MB Battle's
18x9.5 -5F -10R
235.40.18. 18x9.5 -5
245.40.18 18x9.5 -10


















The car is currently on springs however, I'm picking up some BC coilovers in the next few days. I have 25mm spacers in the rear and 20mm spacers in the front to achieve my offset. If I went 30mm in the rear and 20mm in the front would that mess with traction control or anything else?

I've searched the forums, but I don't think anyone has posted this question before.

Thanks for all your help,

Zlatan

No. It should not effect your TC. However, I think you should get wider tires instead of getting wider spacers.

The relationship between tractor control system (TCS) and spacers? How do you figure?

Should be good to go thanks guys.

I live in Idaho and we are covered in snow for the remainder of the year. I'll probably install sometime in March or April and dump it. I'll follow up with a photoshoot!

No, but I'd run a 25mm in the front and pinch the fenders. (and add some more stretch)

Thank you sir,

The full specs are 18x9.5 +15 on the wheels I'm using 20mm in the front and 25 in the rear to get -5 and -10 offsets. My exhaust consists of Kinetix resonated test pipes, HKS carbon Ti muffler, 3 inch piping, and a custom Y-pipe.

Here's an exhaust vid done with my Droid. I had stock wheels at the time.

I'm happy with my current tire sizes. I like some poke and stretch, but I'd rather have some function with my form.

Thank you good sir,

I've already rolled my fenders I'm pretty good with clearance. The camber kit should help a good bit when I install them.
