Do I need my 5mm spacers on front?
« on: 18 May 2012, 21:17 »
Just thinking do I even need the spacers on the front? I have joms but they aren't lowwwwwww just low lol. They are 17"longbeaches so think they are 7j. Do I need them to clear the coilies or can I run without them?

Thanks

They should be fine without spacers but just check how close to the shock the wheel is sitting
