just waiting to see what others think... the factory track width is different front to back, and I use spacers to change my track widths to help with over and under steer

I find this funny, because I'm quite sure I've only seen you "Oversteer"...

Ended up with 74 5/8" front track width (tire width)....outside to outside. Planning on bringing the rear-end out to equal this width but will use a 1/2" spacer to give some adjustment. No realist way, at this point, to set the front end up to have some adjustment using spacers. But....if I had to do it over again, I would have had the pad on the wheels cut down 1/2" and they still would have cleared the rotors by 1/4".
