spacers

[QUOTE=KrafTechnik;2312471]Make sure that when you do go for spacers, you spend the extra for a reputable forged set. There are cheaper versions on ebay that are prone to cracking and while they are cheaper, you can end up with serious safety and performance issues due to cracked spacers. I would look into the H&R TRACK+ Spacers, this is what we carry and recommend to give the wheels a more aggressive look. They are forged and built for race and street applications so you can be assured they will be more than adequate for daily use.[/QUOTE

I have 2011 cayenne S and running a 22" rims (285 35 22) aftermarket wheels. I want to get some spacers. Any idea like what size of spacers should i get for front and rear to get that aggressive look.. (flush). Any info will be a big help.. Thanks

Here are my spacers I put on my CTT (19" wheels). Did a quick write up. Hope it helps, although with different sizes, it will likely be not apples to apples comparison. Good luck.

I have 15mm Adaptec spacers on 20x9 sport technos with 275/45/20 Yokohama Paradas. Rear only. Offset on these wheels is 60mm.

The spacers offered by Porsche in my 2006 Tequipment booklet are 17mm. It doesn't say which wheels they are intended for, but it specially says not for the turbo or 20x10 sport technos. Offsets 57 and 55 respectively.

Adaptec offers 15mm and 18mm spacers for the Cayenne. I didn't want to go any wider than the body so I went down in size to the 15s and they look pretty much flush with the top of the fender. The wider stance and flush with fender look is very nice. This is the best pic I have that sort of shows it. I'd probably go with the 18s if doing it again.

I have a wide body kit on mine and needed spacers to make the wheels look right. I'm not sure of the size of the spacers but they are quite big. I'm now running 22" wheels and have put over 130k miles with zero issues.
