Panamera Spacers + mods

Hi Guys, Ive been following this forum for a few weeks, its great and have got the mod bug back for my new purchase. I have not even got the car yet, its coming next week (see photos below)

Its the V6 diesel with 20-inch Sport wheels.

Im looking to put some spacers on it and maybe lower it.

Can you reccoemend what spacer size I should go for?

15mm all round? or 7mm front/15mm rear?

Also can you guys recommend any other subtle mods which will enhance its looks?

Thanks Guys.. cant wait to get into my first porsche!

15mm front 5mm rear. The rear for sport wheels have a lower offset and wider width.

15mm all around works for the Turbo II wheels which have a narrower width and higher offset at the rear.

Could someone help me out? I'm looking to add spacers for a 2010 Turbo... I have the Spyder RS wheels. Are they the same specs as the Turbo II wheels?

I was thinking 15mm fronts and 10mm rears???

Yes, they should be the same specs as the Turbo 2 wheels - 9½"x20" ET65 front and 11"x20" ET68 rear.
It looks like you do need to go wider in the front than the rear. 15mm front and 10mm rear will probably work nicely for you.

Thanks! I feel like they are just seriously tucked. The fronts look terrible no doubt. The rears aren't as severe. I was hoping to get away with 15mm all around but IDK if it will work. Supposedly these Spyder RS (I417) wheels have the same specs as the Turbo II (I418) but I haven't seen any Turbo II Panameras have the gap as severe as I do.

Have you looked to see if you have factory-installed spacers on the rear? That may be why the rear doesn't look as bad as the front.
