Hey guys. Did the first modifications to my 997 which included the H&R sport springs and H&R wheel spacers; 7mm Front, 15mm Rear. Overall I think it came out great. Ride height is perfect, wheel stance after the spacers is much more aggressive looking, and the ride quality is still great! I definitely recommend this combination to anyone who is not interested in a full coilover setup. I had my guys snap some before and after shots, which follow below (black logos are before, white is after).

Have a great day!

This is a great combo, we've done this exact setup (without the spacers) on a customers 997 turbo and it rides great just like you said. He also opted for the sway bars which really change the whole handling characteristics of the car. Enjoy it!

 

That looks fantastic Chris, I'll be by soon for the same haircut!

I got you covered. Cant wait to see her!!!

 

What's next?

Please say wheels


Have you thought about maybe painting your calipers Black w/yellow Porsche logos?

That would look sick.

 

Nice.

 

Wow, that looks a lot better. Definitely be doing this at some point.

 

That looks great! Mine needs the same attention.

 

looks great..how about some clear corners?

 

What size spacers can you run comfortably on the front and back lowered like this?

 

he said in the post "wheel spacers; 7mm Front, 15mm Rear." -- are you asking if you can run bigger spacers?

 

^^Yeah I see they offer an 18mm... any pics of the 18mm on these cars?

 

I've seen people using 21mm on the back and it doesn't look bad depending on your wheel width and offset.

I use 15mm on the back when I use the stock wheel (19x11) and it pushes it out nicely but I have to drop down to 7mm on the back when I use my RS wheel (19x12).

 

Wheels will come soon I need more power first

DrVolkl, if that was you thanks for the order!

Slavik, I was thinking smoke ones.

15mm is perfect for the stock wheel I would only say to go bigger if you were using another wheel that needed it.

compared to stock, how hard is the new ride? especially on bad surfaces.
