Default Help with Hardrace tie rod spacers

Hey guys, I just purchased a set of Hardrace tie rods and a Blox Racing 20mm bump steer kit. The tie rods have a black spacer on each side of the joint. It is my understanding that the spacers are used as an adjustment/correction for toe change under suspension compression/rebound. Correct me if im wrong. My question is do I leave them as is with a bump steer kit in place? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

You'll need to take it to an experienced alignment/race car guy to set it up for you. Normally what they do is set the car on the alignment rack, then compress the rear suspension to measure the toe change. Gotta play around with the different spacers until the rack is showing the least amount of toe change under compression.
