I'll agree with you there. The other car we were considering was an X5M, and the only thing my wife and I didn't like more about the Porsche was the non staggered stance. While not the optimum way to get it I know, we both are much happier with the stance now.

Just got my spacers installed on the front from Suncoast... so now I'm running 7 front and something like 15-20 on the rear. It's amazing how something so simple can make such a big improvement in appearance.

Never had spacers, but I'm curious. Would spacers add to the unsprung weight; hence, affecting handling?

in theory probably but these nice quality spacers ive used on my cars have never seemed that heavy at all...id guess (as an example)if you did a tire swap to a tire that happened to be heavier it would make more of a difference in unsprung weight than spacers could.

Thanks Robby. Do you have pics of your car at normal ride height(one setting up from load level)?

I looked at your pics very closely and it seems to me that it's on load height. Thanks again.

Sorry. I meant that your pics seem like it's one level up from load height. I'm interested to see how the tires look in relation to the fenders when in the one level up height.
