Has anyone ever put a wider track on a williams using wheel spacers?
Eibach make a range of spacers that push the wheels out further from 10mm to 50mm in 10 mm incriments inbetween.
If so what were ppl's opinions of this upgrade?

I wouldn't go more than 10mm, its suprising how much stress they put on wheel bearings.
See ya

I've got some 10mm spacers sat in my garage, waiting for me to get around to spraying my valver wings and bumper to fit them
aside form the obvious extra load on the bearings, it wont have the same effect as actual wide track, since basically u altering the suspension geometry in a n adverse way
I've heard good things from peopel who have fitted them, will try it and see what happens.

BTW i can supply you the Eibach spacer kits too :D
lol, ok
the effect to anyone that isnt clued up on a proper suspension set-up maybe "better handling".....however i can guarantee that it wont be right
Yeah, but there is cheap and dodged, and ther is 'right' ;)
true, and only one works properly :wink:

Hmmm...talking about spacers...
I bought some wheels, Speedline Group A 6,5X15 and they have ET 53. I put them on and now Clio sucks! If i want to make it nice, i have to put spacers 40mm on each side! Do you know something about that?

ud need a spacer kit of around 17mm
18mm will give the normal offset
I think Sparco has such a kit.
