Photos of a 997.2 4S with Spacers

Checking to see if anyone has photos of a 4S (with PASM) with spacers. I'm looking to put 7mm in the front and 15mm in the rear. My rear tires are 305s, so I am wondering if the 15mm spacers will make the tires stick out too far.

I have a set of OEM 5mm spacers from my C2. They made quite a difference, but I do not think they will have the same effect on the 4S since the car is slightly lower and the wheels sit (or at least appear to sit) farther inside the wheel well.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I got 15mm's ready for my rear and 5mm for front. Waiting on the 5mm to come in and install. I will post when I'm done. I have a 4S.

weird but I don't notice that much of a difference from stock? Maybe its the wide rear end of our 4s's that mutes it?

Do you perhaps have a good stock photo you could post up so we can compare?

White Rock, your car looks great!
But the 15mm spacer on OKB's car looks more noticeable. Is it the picture angles, lighting, or perhaps the original offset of the different wheels you each have?

My thoughts exactly. Maybe it's due to PASM vs. no PASM....do you guys have PASM?

I have PASM and mine are porsche spacers if that makes a difference. I think the wheel offsets may be different.

Good point, the offsets are probably different.

Also, as far as I know, Porsche only makes 5mm spacers...are you sure these are Porsche. If purchased through Suncoast, they also sell RSS...

Your stance is almost perfect and it sure is the wheel offsets.... So what size and offsets your rear wheels are ?
