New Rims / rear spacers/ painted headlights / Updated Pictures / Result of my 36hr r

How is the handling with 13mm rear spacers, as widening the rear track induces understeer.

technically the wheels weren't pushed out alot because the new wheel is only 6.5" wide (rather than the 7's that were on before) + these wheels have a pretty aggressive offset (43 or 44mm?)

all of that means that without the spacers, the wheels were tucked in quite a bit / and even with the spacers I don't think that 1" of wider track in the rear (26mm total) is really enough to induce understeer.

not to mention, my suspension being so stiff that I find my car actually tends towards 4 wheel drift tendencies or even a slight oversteer (depending on conditions / my input etc...)

Dude, thanks

These were one of my top choice in rims, so it seemed a no brainer for the price + forged + Japanese and they were in pretty decent shape
