I used to have the same wheels on my car with H&R coilovers and I used H$R 7 mm on the front and 15 mm on the rear.

Is it to get the wheel/tire further out to fill the wheel well?

At least I hope not, I've been running with the stock bolts for half a year now.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

How do you determine what size spacers you need? I have 18 inch sport classic II's and do you need to get a new alignment once you get them. Is this a diy upgrade? Thanks

POST 3Original post

Wheel spacers do not require re-alignment. The spacers are just held on by 2 screws on your wheel hubs. The size of your spacers (any spacers) will require longer wheel bolts. Porsche has a kit that will fit most wheels that is 5 mm with bolts. They also approved 17 mm on the rears (with longer bolts) for some wheels.

POST 4Original post

I don't think you need longer bolts with 3mm spacers. At least I hope not, I've been running with the stock bolts for half a year now. I needed the spacers to clear my front calipers.

POST 5Original post

I used to have the same wheels on my car with H&R coilovers and I used H$R 7 mm on the front and 15 mm on the rear. They are the perfect size (sorry, no recent pics).

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

any ideas on cost and where to get the spacers? Tirerack doesn't carry them any more.

POST 7Original post

Wheel Enhancement carries any spacer that you would need. The question is why are you considering spacers? Is it to get the wheel/tire further out to fill the wheel well?

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes this is a purely cosmetic thing. I'm just trying to get the wheels and tires pushed further out.

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