Effects of wheel spacers
If you take an S2000 and add 3mm-5mm wheel spacers to the front wheels, with no other changes to the vehicles setup, how would that change the vehicles handling/steering characteristics?

Realistically, not much. You're in the fine-tuning of the car with that, looking for that last thousandth of a second. You could accomplish the same thing with wheels that have a little extra offset to the outside.
The folks who go for the gusto have them and are still inside SCCA BStock rules. I suspect that they would run the same times if they were to be removed without their knowing...

Appreciate the feedback, I am just trying to decide if I want to put a spacer on in order to run a 6 piston caliper, or leave spacers out of the equation all together and run a 4 piston caliper.
