Good choice bud! I've driven defenders with spacers, and with fairly offset rims, and its not until you drive one with standard wheels and set up that you realise how shìte the handling is. It feels like your running on rails compared!
I honesty don't understand why anyone would say the handling isn't effected, it is. Every time you go to turn into a corner, you feel it in the steering. I can totally see why people run spacers or offset wheels just for the look, they DO look better with a wide stance, but in reality that's all they do!
You'd have to be doing a huge amount of slide slope driving to make yu think you need them, and even then, if you take a Landy across a side slope with standard everything, you'd be pretty reckless to think you needed to lean some more!
My 90 is a workhorse, and an everyday car, I need reliability, not looks! I stripped and rebuilt both my axles on purchasing it, and there is no way id put anything on that could even vaguely decrease part life!
