Two inch lift

I had a two inch lift installed. Of course, I forget to to a before picture but the car sits noticeably higher. I got the kit from https://shop.eurowise.com/

Looks good. How is the ride/handling with the 2" lift? What size tires are you running?

I want to get this lift and put on 265/65/18s if they'll fit. Maybe 20mm spacers too.

The ride and handling is unchanged. I'm running the stock tires. I'll see what I can fit. I'm not interested in spacers as they put added stress on the running gear.

I think it would look badass with slightly bigger tires filling up the wheel wells. I love the overland style on your cayenne, post some more pics if you can.

Thanks . Not much room for a taller tire inside the wheel well. I might be able to go up an inch if the tire is not as wide. That is why some guys run spacers.

Spacers are good for show vehicles but not for vehicles that are driven everyday. My last trip I put 3,000 miles on the car in two weeks.

Just curious why you believe why spacers are not good for daily drivers?

Runner spacers ,especial the wider ones many like, put extra stress on the axle bearings and associated components. Like holding something heavy close to your body vs holding it with your arm extended .
