People are always asking about using wheel spacers to improve the look of their wheel offsets, so I thought I'd post my results.

I think that the stock wheel offsets are kinda wimpy and look tucked in. I have also read the pushing the fronts out a little bit helps with some understeer.

Installed Hub Centric 15mm H&R spacers with longer lug bolts, and it looks perfect to me! Right out to the inner edge of the fender well. Works for me.

Before and after pics, front & rear:

 

Looks nice, people do this all the time in the VW and Audi world so why not on a Porsche.

 

Did it do anything for handling, or is it just for looks (not that there's anything wrong with that)?

BTW, even though it's subtle, it looks much better in the after picture.

 

I am running the same setup, 15MM all corners. Love the look.

 

Wow, that looks great. I like the fact that you updated the stock rims. Very original take on a current style. Let's see some full side shots please.

I know.....I sold you my set because I wasn't using them, and then had to go buy more!!

 

looks real good

 

Looks good brando. Is your car lowered?

 

Yes sir....on JIC coilovers.

 

Nice...will be even better when lowered.

those wheels look great

 

That looks much better.

Can you take pics of your whole car? I'm lookin to get 15mm front and 18mm rear as GT2 spec.

Did u powdercoat ur wheels?

 

Whaaaa??? Any lower and it wouldn't be drivable in my area.

Check with Daymon at Tire Rack. If you can change a tire, it is deff DIY.

Thanks!

I'll take some side shots in the next few days for ya.

Wheels....I prepped and painted them myself.

 

Did u end up taking any more pics?
