Yeah, lowing the car pulls the axle out a little, but it's still well within the cup. If you put a spacer on it, you're putting the cv balls more toward the center of the cup, but you're also increasing the angle on the cv by a little bit. So it would make the real problem - the extremety of the angle - even worse.

Well, yes & no. See the discussion in this thread https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...60804&hl=spacer

It's a matter of determining which is the lesser of the two evils.

They look like something between pure bling and a waste of billet.

Spoon also makes them also...



They recommend for people who track their s2000 with lowered ride hight, large tires and a mechanical LSD. Their webpage states that the drive shaft life is shortened when the ride high is reduced and the drive shaft angle is more then it was designed to be.

I guess its for people who lower their car allot...
