Default New Umi Suspension + Koni/Strano

Decided to post some pictures of my new suspension. The only thing that hasnt been installed were the relocation brackets, I decided to hold off on these. Havnt been able to really push the car yet, I need some new tires.

Regarding relocation brackets, someone told me that they may be a negative for handling purposes? Is this true? This is a weekend car and does not see track times at all. I just want this car to handle like its never done before, and dont want to install something that may actually effect handling.

I don't have them... Do you need them? Not necessarily, and I try to avoid using them because where you set them can mess with roll steer and stability.
