What is your suspension set-up?

You can go to mazdatrix and buy just the rack spacer, or just buy the whole angle kit AND run knuckles, thats what you should do regardless.
oh yeah, thats what im gonna do. i just feel like i want a little moar angle to hold me over until then.

more travel in the rack is good. what i did with my angle mod was pop out the tie rod end and turn the rim till it was a nickle width away from lca, the lower the offset (using spacer or whatever) the more clearance/angle. if you can run a good amount of neg camber then you can fit stock fenders, if not get 30mm.

that way the angle mod is maxed out for your width/offset, and you dont need the inner tierods, just heim outers to help get rid of some bumpsteer.

saves a buck or two and can be installed faster IMO. ( ksport factory is 20mins away and my welder is 5 mins)

i dont want a kit. i was wondering if someone knew the dimensions of the spacers they put on the inner tie rod. the knuckles will be the first thing after i pay for the registration on my fcs.

7mm is like the max you can safely go.. Go to the hardware store and get some washers lol. Im still running stock tierods!

you could probably run stock tierods, 7mm spacer, and jtp knuckles.. It should have plenty of angle. Youll need negative offset wheels.

heres a pic with stock tierods and 7mm spacer



Heres a pic with modded knuckles and 7mm tierod spacer



my **** knuckles

unfortunately the other side doesn't have that much angle... so time travel is not possible.
