    correct wheel selection could have avoided that though

    yeah nah, you mean big expensive -ve offset rims?

    spacers are used regularly, and you can change them pretty easily if the need arises

    We all know that well manufactured wheel spacers are perfectly safe, yet for some reason the people making our road rules disagree.

    I hate using spacers puts so much load on the wheel bearings.

    The same could be said for wheels that would work out to be the same overall offset though, I would be using longer suspension links rather than big wheels to fill out bigger guards.

    I spoke to beau via facebook the other day and he said it was pretty hard to smash a car that hasn't left the dyno. Gotta give the guy credit where it is due and keeping us updated with the progress of his build.

    100% this will be at WTAC , fingers x'd he has had time to iron out all the bugs first.
