I have 110,000 miles and found one a couple of months ago at a tech day hosted by Airgate. i must say, not a big deal.

Well after going back to the dragon this past weekend without it, I can say I didn't notice very much, if any, difference. May have been easier to tell if I were to remove it in the middle of the day, instead of having the two tests 5 months apart.

I just got my 07 S last week from a forum member and it has about 3K miles on it. I check this past week and sure enough, there are four, two on each side on the front tires. I have not taken them off yet (requiring jacking up the front) as she is under cover for the Winter.

Thanks to all for the heads up on the spacers. I checked and sure enough my 2008 has 'em. So, I don't want to sound stupid, but if I jack up the car do the spacers pull out easily or will I need to wrestle them out?

Wait, what?

Are you saying that I can be lazy and take my S2000 to any dealership to check for me for free?
