I have the Porsche 5mm ones here if you want them, PM me for details. I know some people go for 14mm in the rear, but that's almost too getho...

When you guys put on the spacers are you having an alignment done or is it not necessary?

just put on 15mm H&Rs in the rear and it looks great. More aggressive stance from the rear view. No alignment needed.

7mm front with 15mm rear from H&R with the longer bolts is what we are doing. If you need part numbers, PM me.

Do you sell the 7 & 15mm spacers with the correct length black bolts?

Thanks

Those 23's on the back look very good. What do you have on the front?

I went for 7's and 15's but they don't fill out the wheel wells like those 23's do. Nice.

Can someone post pictures of 15mm spacers in the rear? Is it OK to just run the back spacers but not the front?

Thanks
