Wheels and spacers
for Example if I choose to put some c6 zo6 rims on my 89 formula I would need spacers, would that have a negative effect on my handling or positeve or none?

Re: Wheels and spacers
spacers add a bit more unspring weight, so the handling will suffer, but in a amount so small that at most levels, you will never notice it.
just be sure to properly torque the spacers, then again in a week or so, and keep doing it until they stop moving. You dont want the inner lugs to come loose, of you will loose a wheel and possible the car.
why i would not use them personally
