Lowered with H&R Springs and Blacked Out Wheels
Since the car is so new, we thought we would share the basic updates done to this Porsche 991 Carrera. The 2013 3.8L DFI carrera like most cars needs 2 things... Lowered and some wheels. For this local customers 991, we added the H&R lowering springs which maintain the PASM ride function. This lowers the front of the car, 1.2inches and the rear 1.0 inches. This gives the coupe a great stance. The stock wheels already looking very nice were finished off with a gloss black powdercoat. Paint matching the center caps, the over all package looks great. If you have not been following our Performance Build, go here!

Very nice! Do this car one more favor and replace the amber bulbs by Hoen Chromium's now that it has clear side markers

Settling of springs is usually instant from rolling the car back and forth. Its not like over time they sag.

Looks good, but needs spacers in the rear.

Nice!!! Tastefully done & was probably completed fairly economically as well.... IMO, black rims look great on white cars.

The car is coming back Monday and we are going to fit some different size spacers on it to see what looks best on the 991. This will also start the installation and testing of our new cold air intake

Why spacers. Better to get a more aggressive and wider wheel with massive rubber on the rear.
