Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion

I would recommend the H&R springs, which maintain OEM ride and make the look like the car it should have been from the factory!

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have carrera Sport 19" alloys on my Porsche 911 Gen 2 with PASM - 235 width on the front and 305 width rubber on the back. Looking to get some spacers for the car and lowering springs... any recommendations? How low? Which springs? where from? what spacers? How thick? lol cheers.

POST 2Original post

I believe 5mm front and 17mm back is typical for spacers for a flush look on stock wheels. I would recommend the H&R springs, which maintain OEM ride and make the look like the car it should have been from the factory! I recently posted a picture of my car in this thread http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Honda Please let me know what drop the H&R springs should be for a 997 Gen 2 with PSM... the arch center is 27" from the floor... how high is the center of your arches from the floor? Cheers

POST 4Original post

I'll attempt to get round to that for you, but the ground clearance of a C2S is 110mm, a C4S 108mm, a GT3 93mm. Given the H&Rs are -20/-25mm, you're looking at a lower ride than GT3. However, the approach angle is better given the fact there is no splitter on the C2/C4.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
