LCA relocation brackets and handeling?

Just wondering how the LCA relocation brackets will effect the handling of the car in turns at speed?

Also, will they effect the car at all while driving at speeds over 140mph?

Thanks for the info

Rob

It all depends on what modifications you have already and how they are set, How stiff the car is, tire quality, how much body roll, height of car compared to geometry setting used on relocation bracket- there are so many variences that come into play- every car is differnt based on what parts you have.

The brackets can make a car handle better, they can also make a car handle worse- depends on how they are set with what you have done to the car.

Thanks for the reply.

At present my car has stock suspension. However I'm planning on replacing pretty much everything and adding subframe connecters. I'm also planning on lowering the car an inch or two.

This car in Europe and I'm wanting to start getting involved in some of the high speed competitions they have over here and also for some autobhan fun in Germany. I just don't want the car to become twitchy at high speeds.

Thanks again

Rob
