I've never spun the car.. but I've gotten really sideways a few times and came close to spinning. Recently I hit a loose patch of gravel in a turn and fishtailed side to side a couple times and kept going. A cop heard it (not even sure if he saw me) and came flying down the street, saw a sports car, and proceded to write me a reckless operation ticket.

Not to hijack but anyone think I can fight it?

i am one of those who inspected for spacers, didnt see any and did then lose control-
was repairing the damage and also painting calipers- when we took the wheels off of the car we found a spacer that the dealer missed and that we had missed when inspecting with wheels on...

I inspected to make sure the spacers were removed the day after buying this car. The car has never fully spun (180 or more degrees), but I have put it in a slide / fishtail condition a few times. Always intentional, and the car always behaved as anticipated.
