Well it kind of evens itself out, if you kept stacking spacers on the rear mount then yeah you'd have to come up with a solution for it like Mike Cosentino did, but no one is running civic coils either.

No, stg 1 is just the front, stage two isn't necessary unless you drag, but it's front and rear
