Any feedback for this eBay seller?
http://stores.ebay.ca/DMV-Motorsports

Want to go for this:
Front 15mm: http://www.ebay.com/itm/170846741638...426486&vxp=mtr
Rear 17mm: http://www.ebay.com/itm/170743261113...1767b9&vxp=mtr

I'm dropped in Tein Flex and running with OEM V1 wheels.

Did any of you guys notice any difference in feel after putting spacers on? I just put on 25mm spacers in the rear and I feel like my alignment is off now. The steering feels loose and it tracks right if I let go of the wheel. Never had this issue before the spacers. Can it be that I don't have spacers in the front, maybe that's why it's causing it?

yeahh..i think it might be the lack of spacers in the front..i was told that your diff is going to suffer if you dont have an even ammount of spacers all around...or close to even...but dont qoute me on that..lol...

i had 25mm spacers all around and didnt have that problem..so it could be it.

I run 15mm in the rear with no fronts and the car drives great. You should definitely get an alignment after installing spacers.

Makes no sense. How would front spacers affect the diff?

So an alignment is necessary after installing spacers? I thought it would not mess with the alignment?
