s13 New drifting was wondering....?

SO I have wondered would it be okay If I used spacers with the front s.e. wheel's tell I got more seat time and suspension mods. And then upgrade my wheels? I have been looking around and I was thinking to finish up my suspension and just get some track time with steelies and s.e. I need the spacer so I can have a better offset in the front because of my tein tie-rods and the spacer I am running with them for angle. Originally I thought to buy used wheels to help with the offset I need but I want to save for some meister wheels and move up size. Can't decide what to do, but still finishin up suspensions. The only problem is will be finishing soon ahhhhh can't buy used wheels need meisters......help me out

You want spacers for wider front track? Look into to upgrading your tires, the difference will be noticeable.

you're real psyc'ed for 4fast 4furious aren't you?

you could put spacers up front, but it won't fix your lack of driving skill. you're spinning out because you're overdriving the car. it's unlikely that the few extra degrees of steering angle you'll get will save you. and the new wheels will probably have the same problem. stick your head under the car and see what's rubbing and how much. you could be hitting the stops on the rack with the tires just barely rubbing. in that case, spacers will do nothing for you.

typing lik dis iz bullshit br0

you just cant spell, the language barrier is understandable though. Stop modding the car, meisters wont make you drive any better. tires/LSD/big pair of nuts is all you need. learn to drive the car.......when you outdrive what you have then you start upgrading
