				wheel spacers
			 
			I want to install some spacers on the front wheels and am wondering at what size spacer does it start to have a negative impact on steering and handling.  Car is a 82 SC at euro height.  Thanks

			You are changing the scrub radius so the answer is "immediately."   The better question is how much of a negative impact are you willing to put up with. Which, of course, is totally subjective.

 It may look better and not make a noticeable difference. Modern cars with closer to zero scrub have the positive offset wheels. https://www.carthrottle.com/post/what-is-scrub-radius-and-why-is-it-important/   | ||
