14mm Spacers in Front on lowered 997.2

My cars is a 997.2 C4S with OEM Porsche Carrera S II wheels with a front ET 57.

Some weeks ago I installed H&R spacers: 7mm front and 15mm rear. The wheels were pushed out nicely and they seemed to be flushed with the fenders.

This past week the car was lowered with H&R springs, and while the stance of the car is now largely improved, the front wheels don't look flushed anymore.

In an attempt to push the front wheels out further, I am thinking about using 14mm or 15mm spacers for the front. Since the car has been lowered, will the front wheels rub the fenders? Any other issue to worry about?

Your personal experiences will be greatly appreciated, TIA

I got 10mm front and 18mm rears w/factory 19" turbo wheels.
I'm very happy with how it looks and handles.

Thank you Mark.

I saw your car in your post regarding your spacer installation. Very Nice.

Are the Adaptec 10mm spacers hubcentric?
