The thing with what people say about how spacers will negatively effect the car. Is that it's all theory, always best to put theory in practice. If it works: fantastic. If it doesn't work: oh well you tried something different. Admittedly I'm someone who isn't a fan of running spacers, 10/15mm spacers would be the limit I'd run but that's just me

Hi Steve great vids, been watching awhile, just a question that's off topic but noticed you run an Rsport 400 gen 2 intercooler? I'm looking at purchasing this one or the pro alloy curved one as there really light weight, do you like the rsport intercooler? Is it a heavy item? Keep up the good videos!

Steve, abit off topic but do you notice any acceleration gains from running the 15s over the 16s?
@Sparkplugsteve4 жыл бұрын
It would depend on tyre sizes but for what I use their all pretty close in diameter so gearing feels the same.

Can you please talk about the Fiesta MK8 ST-3 engine durability. Has the over heating (cylinder heads cracking) issues of the MK7 been resolved?

What about just fitting the optional Ford 17 inch wheels? Little sidewall to flex and bigger brakes would fit without too many issues, plus it's effectively "standard" parts?
@gregglinnell90434 жыл бұрын
It comes down to the cost of the tyres. Tyres in the 15’s are a lot cheaper.

Does the change in scrub radius actually make any difference to the feel or ability of the car, probably not.

Spacers back in the day were JC Whitney junk, I've personally seen them come apart, on the road and the track. Now a days they seem to be better made, I've seen a lot of people use them to good affect.

@Sparkplugsteve4 жыл бұрын
2 of the 4 are dead and iv done 4 track days on them. The other 2 won't last much longer. Their very grippy but a constant headache to get the correct pressure to control the wear.
@AdzyStu4 жыл бұрын
Spark Plug Steve what pressure do you run in yours? I usually aim for 25f 26r hot which is within nangkangs recommendations, but still noticing uneven wear on n/s/f

Around 27/28 hit on the front but my biggest issue is wearing the centre of the tyre.
