These are hub spacers that are installed and then never touched. They are installed behind the hub and caliper.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

The picture of the hub spacers does not work on my computer.

Why are the spacers necessary?

I see, they go here. Interesting, apparently to fix a clearance issue of some sort when the camber or caster changed. This would widen the track a bit.

so would that bring out the wheel a little bit? i plan to go with an aggresive offset on the wheels i plan to buy so i wouldn't want any clearance issues with the front fenders

They won't cause any issues. The spacer will push the top of the tire out but you will bring it back in with the camber kit. The bottom movement is so small it is negligible.

Does this mean the spacer is tapered?

The caster is adjusted from the balljoint as well. SPC designed a special plate for this adjustment.

Interesting design. Are these arms on Tanner Foust's AEM 350Z?

Could you please explain in detail why this is necessary? I had these arms on my 'must buy' list, but I'm not sure about something that changes the geometry of the wheel mounting locations.
