Default handling..

When i bought my car the previous owner had spoon brakes installed. He put spacers and extended studs and hayame extended lugs on the car to clear the spoon calipers. The calipers r no longer on but it still has the spacers and extended studs on the front. My question is would this in any way throw off the handling of the car?

It could effect your handling, but my guess is not by much. Spacers can also throw off your rotating balance since a lot of the time they don't center properly. Since the calipers are gone, take the safe road and remove them.

A wider track at the front would change the balance I think.
And let us know (if you decide to remove them) about the handling without them.
