Do you feel any difference in the handling?

Can you put some thick spacers (washers) under the concerning points for clearance or its not even close?

Thanks.

Am I crazy or does something seem off with the way the bar mounts to the struts? It seems like the stress would go laterally on the strut bolts and not vertically on the actual strut.
