    Wheel spacer

    I have been reading that wheel spacers on the right front are recommended in the slick. Can someone explain to me why this works? It doesn't make sense to me because wouldn't moving the rf wheel out more put less pressure on the tire reducing grip?

    Yes. The wheel rate is softer. So the RR picks up additional weight during lateral load transfer. That tightens entry.

    There are a lot of other things happening as well.

        Reset scale numbers? Geometry or wheel change?
