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.

After installing H&R lowering springs it, necessitated the need for spacers. Since I track my car, I felt it would be better to go with a reputable brand vs. trying to save a few bucks. I ended up going with 15MM ECS Tuning on all 4 corners. I was a bit worried it might be a touch too wide in the front. While aggressive, to me it looks about just right. Very pleasantly surprised at what adding 30mm to the track does for handling. Feels very planted and stable.

Looks great!
Just curious who lets you track their car without a roll cage that is 2" above your helmet? I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but if something bad happened, being in a cab is not the best car to be in.
I will be there for sure. I had to move some stuff around the schedule but was able to make it happen. Hopefully it stays dry. That time of year is a crap shoot. I'm in the white group.
Very nice !!
I just got a set of spacers from ECS as well. I bought a set of 15mm and another 18mm.
Question:
What size tires are you running (front and rear)?
My car is not lowered (99 996), and I will be needing rear tires soon.
I am running 225/40 in the front and 265/35 in the rear, but I am thinking of going for 275/35 in the rear.
The car is strictly a commuter (no tracking, but spirited highway driving), and I am wondering if I will have issues with rubbing.
Pesuazo thanks. Sounds like you can a good bit larger in the rear. I'm running the same as you in the front and rear 285/30zr18. Not sure you can go with 18mm spacers in the rear with the wider tires.

Hi Slope,
That is the reason I want to put 275/35 in the rear, they are about 0.4" wider than the 265/35, and slight increase in side wall....adding the already purchased spacer (15mm) will add another 0.6" to the width for a total of 1 inch.
If I put 285/30 in the rear that will be a width increase of 0.8" by itself, while loosing side wall, increasing the gap between the wheel well and fender (I do not want that, since I am not lowering the car and I am not rolling fenders either).
I will continue my research for the best aesthetic fitment (for me).
Still, your set up looks great.
Regards.
what would be the maximum spacer thickness for the front, have 20 in the rear and it looks great. but front wheels are bit too deep and dont harmonize with the rear ones
thinking of 15mm, the car has 30/40mm drop
any opinions ?
Here are the various stages of my car.
sport design (GT3 style):
turbo wheels:
turbo wheels & spacer:
With widebody 996 wheels on my car with 15mm spacers. Lowered on coilovers. No rubbing.
