hello,


need some info on how wide of the front and rear track influence of the handling?

i plant to use 13mm spacers on front and 15mm spacers on rear, but my friend suggest me to use 10mm on front, does it will increaase the handling if I use wider track on rear?

and does it is still save to use this size?

my wheel is 15 inch wide 8j et25 front and rear is same, tire 205/55/15.

Thank you

If its a prefacelift you might have arch contact on the rear, especially with 15mm spacers, the track is wider on the rear as standard
