Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

I have a Cayman on order with the Carrera Sport wheels and plan to substitute H&R springs to lower the car. I called Ralph at Boothe Design and asked him which of his spacers will allow me to 'push' out the wheels flush with the fenders WITHOUT causing any rubbing with the lowered car. He felt positive the 6mm spacers would work all the way around. Porsche does not recommend using their 5mm spacers with the Carrera Sport wheel. Can I fit the 15mm Boothe spacers on the rear with the Carrera Sport wheels? Has anyone tried any spacers with the Carrera Sport wheel? Any rubbing? Thanks in advance - I guess I can wait until my Cayman arrives (November) but I'd like to consolidatemy orderfrom Boothe Design and do it right now. /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/thumbsup.gif

The Carrera Sport Rear wheels have the smallest offset (42). On the other hand it is also the widest by 1/2 inch. I don't see a problem of fitment, but we would like to hear from some of those who have fit our 15mm spacers to the rear of your car, because I can't remember every sale that we made and exactly which wheel they had. Can you please help???
