Re: Wheel spacer question ?
I've got 32mm spacers and 31" tyres. I haven't adjusted the steering stops at all.
I wouldn't say it makes a noticeable difference to the turning circle. I've never struggled getting in or out of anywhere.

Re: Wheel spacer question ?
I did my first trail to day and sine putting the spacers on I seamed to not be getting round as tight of a circul. I was wounding if these had affected it or it was all in me head
Re: Wheel spacer question ?
So does spacers make turning circul tighter or not ?

Shouldn't make a difference I don't think.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

It does make a difference but you shouldn't really notice it that much.

As Dan said it will make a bit of difference as the wheels are sticking out 32mm wider
