Ride quality different after spacers?
Hey guys,
I installed 25mm in the front & 20mm in the rear hub-centric spacers on my is350 lowered on RS-R down springs (installed 2 weeks ago), and I feel like after installing the spacers my ride quality became very strange. The ride feels more disconnected and kind of bouncy. Anyone else with spacers experienced this? It looks amazing with spacers so I don't want to get rid of them =/
Thanks!!

It's weird. My ride felt great with the springs but after this spacers it changed a lot for the worse. It is hubcentric spacers, but I got the full set from Amazon for $120 so they're not the really high quality ones. Do you think that makes a difference ? I don't experience any vibration though.

Which spacers are you running?

Hmm, sounds more like an effect of the springs + OE struts.
Don't believe the spacers should have influence. I've run spacers from Project Kics to eBay no-names, had no issues as long as they were hubcentric.

Why not just remove the spacers temporarily and rule them out? There shouldn't be a reason to absolutely need them unless running an over the top wheel/tire combo.
