It's true if you buy cheap eBay spacers and/or installed them wrong or have the wrong size.

I put 20mm Eibachs on the rear of my IS this week. I took the car up to 90mph and it feels as smooth as it did with out spacers.

Eibach, H&R and Ichaba are the only ones I would buy.

Hibachis are my first choice.
