Porsche Spacers - 987s

[K Man S]

Has anyone got spacers on their Porsches and in particular the CS. I'd be interested to hear your views and see any pics you may have.

Cheers.

I had them on my C4S and they looked great but pretty subtle, didn't really notice any differnce in handling...

Did you need a geo after you fitted these?

got them on my cayman from factory.
look ok, but cant tell any differance to a standard model i drove recently.
dont think its worth the £250.00 i paid.
i think theres cheaper and wider versions available from inde specialists.
a geo check afterwards would be wise.
cheers.

Had the largest spacers (at the back around 1 inch and front less) Porsche do on my Boxster S and now on my 997S. They look fantastic and I liked the change in handling. It's fine to go for large spacers at the back but be careful at the front. Geo might screw up.

I got the 5mm ones on my 996.

They are a very subtle mod, but Porsche approved. £250.

Car feels and looks nicer but maybe it's psychological!!

I bought the largest original Porsche spacers which were around o.8 in the front and around 2.2 in the back

I got the techart lowering springs and spacers. have to say, I think the handling is worse. The sharp turn in disappears. Its much more understeery...

However, it does look fab. Bloke parked next to me in a black cayman with turbo wheels today, and u really can tell the diff. Its a subtle mod, but put it next to a stock car, its massively different.

No, they came direct from the factory (5mm)...

Anyone got any pics of their Porsches with them fitted?

Here we go. My old Box with the largest official spacers. I just loved it.

and what I loved most was the look of the back end...
