1 matching discussions were examined; no attributable action/outcome evidence was detected. No consensus or repair conclusion is claimed.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

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.

I'm thinking of spacing my wheels out a little bit. What are the ramifications and are the benefits worth the potential wear on bearings etc.? I was only planning on 1/8" (front) to 1/4" (rear). I definitely like the look, but I don't want to do anything that will increase wear anywhere else.
IMO not worth the added wear on the bearings. I have enough as it is!
Thanks Tabor. I think you're probably right. I'm gonna pass on them.
Paul, Porsche makes a 5mm spacer for the GT3 (so the front wheels can clear the calipers) that also comes in a kit with 5mm longer wheel bolts. I've been running them on the street and on the track for 2 years with no problems. Karl
