Just been to local OPC , I accidentally nicked the guys last 996 tequipment brochure for 996's . Oh well !!
I noticed inside it has lots of goodies. One thing I saw was wheel spacers, one set was 5mm and one set was 17mm. With the 17mm spacer is there any rubbing at all? I assume not but why don't they fit these standard? The reason for these is to enhance the appearance so they say which it will of course. Anyone got any and if so how much?
cheers

Have run 15mm jobbies all round on a 964 RS before with no problems.
Worth checking to make sure they are compatible with the wheel sizes you have on the car though.
How much are they ? as they're available from lots of other sources (most likely cheaper too)
As long as the ones you fit are TUV approved quality won't be an issue.

I have same wheels as in your pic of your gt3 although mine is a carrera with aero kit.

The GT3 versions are 1/2" wider front and 1" wider rear and come with 5 or 7mm spacers as standard IIRC
Woogie, definitely worth a call to your OPC to make sure they won't foul the bodywork. I wouldn't think there'd be a problem as your most likely running "JCB" right heights
I had the biggest ones available officially on front (15mm?) and back (well over 20mm) on my old Boxster S (including GT3 wheels) and have them now on a 997S. No problems at all, looks ace and the 997's cornering feel improved as well...
OPC was sceptical to fit them to the 997 first but they worked out perfectly fine...
