Makes sense- you lowered your roll center a fair bit going out that far- and
lessened the effective spring rate by making the lever arm that acts on the
strut effectively longer- and the farther out you go the more compounded the
effect is.
Did you use at 50-53 mm lug bolts? I barely have enough engagement with 43
mm lug bolts (the longest I could find without resorting to studs) with 15 mm
spacers? I would be careful if you did not, as you are increasing your
suspension loading with increased cornering forces.....no one wants wheels flying
off....
Even small changes can make a difference- buy having 25 out front and 15 in
the rear you added about ten mm of track out front, as the rear track is
about 30 mm wider from the factory.
