You should really have a geo done if your changing wheel or adding coilovers..

Recomended by my friend that owns a company called wheels in motion in the Uk that you dont go above a 5-7mm Spacers

The spacers I'll be using are hubcentric bolt-ons. They are not just spacers that slide on the original studs.

It always worth having a geo done if any of the
Toe
Caster
camber
have been changed

Also it often a sign of bad wearing tyres

Stupid question, but what does GEO stand for and since I'm just adding spacers I don't see how the camber or toe will change?

SteadyEddie, you convinced me to try your setup. I also kept the OEM setup when I got aftermarket wheels, but was never happy with how the rears looked tucked in. I got my 25mm spacers today and installed them on the rear. Now the front and rear are inset the same 5/8" from the fender. Looks sooo much better. Not as aggressive as some of the other setup's, but I like it

Glad you liked it. Also glad to help.

I drove our RX last night and followed my wife home driving the SC. The rear tires on the SC looked like they were running with negative camber. I never noticed this until I added the spacers to the rear. Before adding the spacers, the tires were too recessed to see if there was camber, so I'm wondering if it was always like this or did adding the spacers throw off the alignment. Anyone know if adding the spacers means getting another alignment?

PLAYTYM

Geez, I really wouldn't think so especially if they are hub-centric bolt on spacers. I mean it's no different than simply putting offset wheels on, except this way we can rotate our tires.

Thanks. That's a good point. I hadn't thought of it that way.

It's probably the lowering suspension that caused negative camber, not spacers.
