Not now. I have taken it out. The Autoart used to go with a 15mm spacer at the rear.

Love those Carerra Sport especially GT silver paint center! I think there too many full black murder out cars in HK. Ferrari, Porsche, S500 and Vans. OEM wheels look classy!

Love the Carrera Sport wheels. Best looking OEM wheels in my opinion and better looking than many aftermarket as well. Your car looks much better, Good choice.

Yes, they indeed look good. However, we just can't deny that some lightweight aftermarket wheels are very good...i mean basic physics, the lighter the better (if they are strong enough)!

Maybe they're just lazy to clean their wheels ...

Very nice choice, but I may be bias. BTW, on the C4S I have, they recommend the 17mm rear spacer which I have on now. Makes a difference cosmetically, but on the C2S I think it looks just fine without the spacer.

C2S is narrower than 4S, that's why it looks okay!
