    Looking at tubular ones from Jegs, BMR, etc.

    I understand they'll help the rear track better, but how much will launch be affected or improved?

    I don't race or anything, but even the gf gets wheelspin getting into traffic. (Yep, even tried the "don't floor it" convo. Lol)

    The bolts are another issue. I read they're real fun to get out. Any suggestions for that?

    I have BMR and they made a huge difference in handling. Made the car much more stable when making quick lane changes.

    Bolts just need some "massaging"... and penetrating oil.

    Possibly an impact gun.
