Also, looking for a quality brand and location to purchase. Do most of these spacer sets come complete with longer/extended wheel bolts? Thank you.

 

Call an Expert like Alan Bayliss at Wheel Enhancement,
Porsche makes extend lug bolts.
Do not get carried away with the look, let FUNCTION prevail unless
you are a posuer.

Good luck,

MK

 

Performance products IIRC, also has the spacer kits with longer lugs.

 

I bought 2 sets of 15mm spacers from Performance Products last month, more aggressive look and "subjectively" handles better; no unwanted issues.

 

Also with stock twist wheels, do you think 18mm fit without rubbing or the best choice is 15mm. Or maybe a combination 15 in front and 18 in the back ???

 

You do not need spacers with stock wheels, it is only if you buy wheels that
do not have correct offsets, that you would require spacers (or in my case
trying to stay clear of my custom intake tubes inside of my fenderwells.

 

I am also interested for my stock wheels, more for the look than function...

What sizes for front / rear, part numbers, brands, where to buy is what I am would be interested in learning. Thanks!

 

You got me there Woodster. My thinking was to move the wheels in the most outboard position inside the fender without touching it. And I was under the impression, without mentioning the look improvement, it will also improve the handling. I saw pictures of "Seal Grey Matte" car and like the look... But I was thinking of doing the same thing with stock wheels...

Check out Links' thread here to see what 15mm spacers look like on stock wheels:

very nice. have any before & after photos? and possibly a link to the product?

 

Spacers provide a noticeable handling improvement by increasing your cars track as well as providing an aesthetic appeal. You do not need them, but they do not compromise anything and certainly look better. I'd go with 15 mm as it is the safest if you run fairly meaty (I.E. higher sidewalls than stock) and not much negative camber.

Spacers are a win win, looks and some performance.

 

Thanks a lot for the info.

 

Thanks for the pics. In fact it looks nice...I have to admit you are a bit responsible for this extra spending after I saw this photo of your car ;-)

 

For 15mm should one go for hubcentric spacers or the "other" type (like the H&R DR series)? Or does it matter at all?
