Question Spring Assistors?

Anyone who tows use these??

The rear wheels of my Wagon scrape on the inside of the wheel arch when towing - these could possibly keep the wheels and arches apart??

A good Sheffield company..... They will work in a fashion if theyll fit, but Id suggest taking them out immediatey afterwards, as they wont mix with your new-found interest in spirited driving!

Had you considered buying a cheap nose-weight gauge (from Towsure) because it seems as though you have too much weight on the hitch?

Calm down Pete, first the spirited driving, now you're keen to start modifying your Impreza, careful mate, this is a slippery slope
First the spring assistors, cocklink next, shortly followed by Intercooler water spray.....
