Just to share my experience so it may help.
I have 19" 997 wheels 235/40-19 F, 315/25-19 R.
I read that the recommended spacers for using these wheels on a 996tt were 7mm F, 15mm R.
I tried 7mm F, and 15MM R, they seemed to fit fine, but the front tires looked like they could come out a little to match the rear.
Now I have 15mm on all four corners, and they look good with no rubbing on stock suspension. I suspect if I was to lower the car 1", on full lock the front tires might rub the plastic fender liners where they protrude back towards the tires a little.

315's will be the difference probably. I'm still on 295's will measure height later

Hi All,
What brand / where to buy 15mm spacers? I have 12mm in the rear now. I think I'll keep the 12's in the rear in case I go with a wider tire. I'm ~ 1.25" lower than stock ride height as well....15mm fronts should still work correct? Do the 15mm spacers come with longer bolts/hardware? TIA!

Ive bought a couple sets of spacers from Adaptec, they are a sponsor here. They will make them whatever size you want.
