Do you guys think that the spoiler really makes a diff when it comes to high speeds and all. I mean that is the point of a rear spoiler right? But I mean does it make a diff in our cars since we are front wheel drive and all? Just curious thanks in advance.

 

it doesnt do anything, never has, never will.

 

On really fast (racing) cars, rear "wings" push air up and away from the car, which pushes down on the car, creating downforce. On cars like ours, the rear spoilers are not to create downforce, but to improve aerodynamics by allowing less air to pass over the rear of the car. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

haha unless he goes and puts a humongus wing on it.

 

Keep it stock. Don't go putting a Picnic table on your trunk, thats a No No.

But yeah here is a link...

Wikipedia FTW...

 

its for downforce on racing cars... so they dont lift... its for looks on cars like ours... but the stock usually looks best... like in the Maximas case
