Fast250EX

I want to get my 250EX upgraded a bit but don't know what to do. It is a little narrow and i would like to use the Durablue spacers but do they work well and are they very noticeable of an improvement? I also would like a better suspension. I don't jump big much but later this summer i might hit the local track or bash somewhere and could tell from my 1-2 foot jumps that anything too big would bottom it out. The back end would probably have problems bottoming out but it seems harsher than the front shocks. I like nice and plush travel but i can live with the rear.
I think the power is pretty good stock for all my needs. My buds quads are faster but not overly so and if we ever got somewhere where i can exploit my EX's handling and superior trail riding, they would have a full gourmet of my tail light.
I think the suspension idea would be a wise choice. I really don't see a reason to change out the stock suspension right now but do give suggestions in case i need it later.
I want to know basically how well the Durablue spacers work, and what other things to get such as nerfs, skids, and other such things. Keep in mind I am an aggressive trail rider so I think a wider stance and skids and nerfs would benefit me more than more power that i really can't exploit as is on the trails I ride anyway, i never left 3rd gear half the time.
Thanks for any help!
