Leading evidence: 'Run 7s and 15s' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run 7s and 15s' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I just purchased a 2000 C4 - and I wonder if a set of 5 mil spacers I used successfull on my 1991 C2 will work OK.
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.

I just had to have mine removed because they were causing my wheels to be slightly off-center - Lug-centric rather than hub-centric as the tire-guy explained. Created a horrible shimmy over 64mph. They were installed by the PO, and they made the car look awesome. Would love to find some that won't affect the ride. Any suggestions?
I just purchased a 2000 C4 - and I wonder if a set of 5 mil spacers I used successfull on my 1991 C2 will work OK. On that 911 I did not use longer studs. Would this be the same on the 996?
I think I have some extra Ruf hubcentric spacers somewhere. Maybe 5 or 7 mm. I'm not even sure any more
I'll go look and update my post.
Edit: looks like I have both Ruf and HR 7mm spacers. I am positive the Ruf ones are hubcentric. If anyone needs them pm me. We'll figure out a price.

SOLD
The 7mm Ruf spacers are PN R96 331 611 07. These are hubcentric and have the mounting screws. From Ruf they are $99 each! doh!
Ruf parts manual, p. 6.
The 7mm H&R spacers are PN 1495716. They are NOT hubcentric and run around $75 for a
pair
.
I have a couple bags of lugs as well, but I don't know if they are the longer or not. I can check if anyone needs lugs.
I'll sell all 4 spacers for $150 shipped to you in the US.

Thanks guys. You're a big help. Now I just need to measure my old ones. Don't know the size, but they are huge! About an inch thick. Guess I need to do some metric conversion now. I'll try to post some pics later.
There might be a chance to get 4 hubcentric spacers in either 7mm,14mm, or combination, milled spacers(not cast) from T6 6063 aluminum, ISO 9001 certified for $50. That's right all 4 for $50 plus shipping.
Just gauging interest right now.
Well you have to have some sort of quality to be ISO9001 certified. Basically if this goes through, doubters will get left behind and others will get rewarded.
If it's milled on a CNC machine to exacting tolerances and the aluminum is pure, meaning no junk metals or contamination, there's not too much to go wrong. The same reason why I buy some tools from Harbor Freight. There is only so many ways you can make something that is simple.
ISO 9001 certification is a standardized manufacturing process. You apply for this cert to an outside auditing agency. Once certified, you run your own shop. It says nothing about the quality regarding the product you produce.
I audit plants for a living . While this cert is nice like GMP, its not a guarantee...
You have a point but it is my understanding(from being audited in the past) that you need to provide consistent and repeatable processes and this consistency can only help in quality control to ensure that one product doesn't deviate too much from the next product.
I do agree that companies can use it as a marketing scam or just get certified to make themselves look better.
We all know that 9001 certification isn't say much like some of the others like TUV, JWA, etc but it can also weed out the very bad companies(most of the time) as well.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
