20mm spacers for roadracing?

Wat do u guys/gals think about that? I read on timeattackforum that some people prefer a mild spacer to increase turn in response, so it got me thinking. I have +35mm front fenders in the attic, I have 2 sets of stock BBS's, 1 set with Rcomps, the other set streettires. I was thinking of doing the ichiba 20mm spacers and put the widebody fenders on(or not if i dont rub). Wats your opinion on doing so? Remember this is for a roadrace application. FWIW im on Motons

Thanx!

you won't need oversized fenders to run 20mm spacers on OEM BBS's, just longer studs and open ended lug nuts.

well the ichibas are hubcentric with their own studs. But the question is will the car perform "better" or will it be redundant and/or perform worst

Widening the track only helps!
