ECS tuning has a kit that you rent that muti size spacers that you can try on your car then send it back and order the size you need no guessing i have used their kit twice.
Leading evidence: 'Use their kit' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Recommend 15mm' (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.

For the C4S, I know most recommend 15mm, but I've been put off by a few pics I've seen that actually have the tire poking out some with 15mm.

But it's also substantially lowered which I think will change the visual for mine at stock height.

What is the tire size you are running here and can you also share the fender to ground height on all 4 corners?

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.

Hey guys. Looking to add spacers to my stock 04 C4S. I purchased 7mm all around and installed and it definitely made a difference, but I'm still left wanting just a touch. The 996 cars have the worst overhang I've ever seen, 997 and above all sit so much better from the factory.
I've done the research already and can't quite seem to settle on the rear. Most of what I find is pics of NB 996. For the C4S, I know most recommend 15mm, but I've been put off by a few pics I've seen that actually have the tire poking out some with 15mm. But then I've seen others with 18mm and its flush. None of it makes sense. I'm leaning towards a 12mm just to keep it somewhat conservative. With that said, can anyone post some photos of mainly their rears? Preferably from like a down-the-side sort of shot so I can gauge the overhang? I'm factory height also btw.
you need to know the wheel offsets of the cars you've been looking at to judge spacers. I think on a stock twist C4S the 15mm (all 4 wheels) is the right size
its also way easier to search for modded turbos

I've actually seen that silver Turbo in my research and agree it looks great. But it's also substantially lowered which I think will change the visual for mine at stock height. I know I'm getting specific but I want to see a factory height C4S with factory wheels and spacers to judge.
Yeah, I'm not necessarily going for super flush. Just a nice touch that could pass for OEM that eliminates some of the massive overhang. I am planning to install the C4S RoW suspension though so that will drop it a touch. Here is mine with the 7mm. It actually improved it more than I initially suspected, but I think it could still go a touch more. Sort of why I'm thinking the 12 may be a good fit.
LOL. You bet. I wasn't sure I was going to like it at first with the slight rose tint, but I actually rarely notice it in person and it just tends to look silver.
Wait, why is this hard? All of these cars with different wheels sit slightly differently.
You said you have 7mm spacers, and would like a bit more.
Simply mount your wheels, and measure how much more you'd like. Order that size spacer.
Done.

amazing looking turbo pal. What is the tire size you are running here and can you also share the fender to ground height on all 4 corners? Many thanks in advance
