with the rear wings - the downforce comes at quite a cost of drag..

it's one of the most easiest but also inefficient ways to get downforce..

the more efficient way is cleaning up the underside..front splitters.. diffuser etc..


if you are trying to reduce lift.. then dropping the rideheight and small boot and chin spoiler will be simplest and cheapest without changing the look of the car..
