How’s the car with the spacer been? Drive the same? I know looks awesome. Worried will drive different. Like to drive spirited, never ran spacers on anything.

One of the keys to reducing torque steer (besides the front diff) is the alignment of the wheel and suspension centerline. It is likely that shifting the wheel/suspension centerline will affect the torque steer. Whether a 3/4" change is sufficient to make a noticeable change is unknown....but possible.

I don't notice any difference and wouldn't expect I would. 20mm arrive tomorrow, will see if I have time to put them on Thursday.

As for torque steer, it's possible, but then you can say the same for any change to tire/rim combo.

Thanks, yes let us know what you think of the 20mm. I order splash guards, once those in I’ll figure out spacers..

That's 15mm in the front and 20mm in the back. I prefer the 20mm and will keep it. No issue installing and no rubbing.

How's it been driving? and install had no issues? nothing needed to be altered?

No issues for install and I don't notice any driving difference, but I am also still in break in.

I will say the best part of having the 15s in front is it creates an optical illusion. It looks like front and rear track are the same, even though front is still wider. Kind of like how people think the Spoon springs have a reverse rake even though they are even. Only bad part with the spacers is you will want to drop it right away.

Thanks! Can you post the link to the ones you got?

You the man! Thank you lol yeah I was planning on doing 15s and 20 as well. I think that looks perfect

I was thinking about running a spacer with the oem wheels to match what the Apex wheels are so I don't have to get an alignment twice a year. But now I've considered just getting an extra set of wheels bc someone on here is a bad influence with good ideas like that.

You think the 20mm will fit the front perfect as well?

20s should fit fine, plenty of FL5s running them and they are what Bonoss recommends. Check the CivicXI forums for some pics, I bet some are running 25s as well.
