Even with the 15mm Ray it still looks tucked a bit, i think 20mm is ideal for what im looking for, thanks man

Zippy: aftermarlet wheels often come with a different offset to push the wheels out more than stock. Even in stock sizes, they may not require any or smaller spacers.

Here's mine again with factory 5mm in the front and 17mm in the back. Been on the car since I've baught it last year and no problems what so ever. I track it like this as well. I thought of putting a 10mm in the front but I'd hate for it to rub so I'm keeping it the way it is for now.

I had thought about spacers also for my 01 Turbo with 19" Champion RG5's, but after I lowered the car with PSS9's, my mechanic actually put my car at -2 degrees camber to make sure the rears didn't rub. If you look at my car, you can actually see the wheel somewhat tilting in. I was more worried about premature tire wear with this setup since PS2's in 315's are over $500 a clip, but he said it would be ok. If I brought the car back to factory spec for camber, could I also add spacers to bring the wheels out some, and not rub? Thanks

Just be careful re tire clearance, etc. You know Porsche recommends staying within 15% of the factory ET to avoid PSM/AWD problems.

Up On 3 Racing is infamous around these parts
Try Ralph Booth Ive ordered them from him in the past. He has a variety of sizes. He advertises in Excellence Magazine if you need his information.
