Spacer Q (Promise I've Searched) w/ 21" Turbo Wheels

Hi there,
I have a 2013 GTS with the 21" turbo wheels. Maybe I'm crazy, but I would really like the have the wheels' stance be just a touch more aggressive. On my other cars, I've always used hubcentric H&R spacers with great luck. In this case, the narrowest they make is a 15mm, which just eyeing it, I think is a little thick for my application. Do any of the vendors here have a hubcentric fitment for my application that will work well? If so, please also let me know the bolt length I will need to complete the package.

Thanks again

RM

I believe Suncoast Porsche parts has them in stock

Thank you very much. In your opinion, is 5mm noticeable?

Try SpeedArt..I have 10's both front and rear or you could try Tech-Art. I ordered my set directly from Speed-Art Germany. I will provide my contact there, if you want.

On the Suncoast site it says that the 5mm spacers aren't compatible with 21" wheels. Is that incorrect? Just making sure before ordering.


"Not compatible with the 20" RS Spyder Wheels, 21" Turbo Wheels, 21" Sport Edition Wheels, or vehicles equipped with snow chains."

For the record my car has 21" SportEdition Painted Black with 5mm factory installed spacers, so I have no clue why Suncoast says not compatible.
You can also option them on the Confugurator

My guess about "Not compatible with the 20" RS Spyder Wheels, 21" Turbo Wheels, 21" Sport Edition Wheels, or vehicles equipped with snow chains." is that it would push the wheels too far out IF you didn't have the matching fender extensions. But if you do have the extensions (which I assume you do if you have the Turbo II wheels), then it should be fine.

But, you should probably get some clarification from Suncoast...

Robby, it's better if you contact Speed-Art direct. Those guys are real experts and they do know Porsches inside out better than any US dealership. Same goes to Tech-Art. If you tell them what you need and what you currently have installed and they will give you all your options and advise (if you need one). They have spacers in stock. I am not affiliated with them I've just gone directly to the Germans for the best stuff and advise. Plus you'll save some money also.

I bought spacers from http://www.maxspeed-motorsports.com/spacerbolts.html

PACKAGE #13 2 x 7mm + 2 X 18mm SPACERS WITH BOLTS PRICE $289.95 USD

I forget which size went where. This was on 21" Turbo 2 wheels on 958 Turbo but the stance was great.

Thanks for this site! Think I'm gonna try 7mm all around.
