Message	"subframe spacers/collars are overrated *for* eliminating wheel hop", and especially on drag launches where the drag strip pavement is grippier. On the street it can almost eliminate wheel hop for many cars. It is a good value/performance mod, it *reduces* wheel hop and also improves rear suspension feel. I just hate to see all these claims that wheel hop can be *completely* eliminated by simply adding these spacers...
