Those of you with spacers on 10" wheels
 

Do you get a shimmy at all at around 65 mph?

No problem here with 17mm spacers

Wheels unbalanced?

They were balanced, in fact one is brand new so it was balanced for the first time.

You have 18x10's?

I see Porsche have recently downsized the brake rotors and calipers on their latest offerings !!
Can't say its a particularly appealing look though.......:confused:

I've got same size. No shimmy here. Is it possible to get warp on spacer from cold to hot temp change down there? Kinda like the opposite of taking a hot pan off the stove and running it under cold water...??? Just a guess.

No.

PL,
Hope you are well, i haven't posted for some time.
What width spacer are you running?

I've got 18x10 rears w/7mm spacers. As long as the tires are balanced and not flat-spotted, things are very smooth at all speeds.

My wheels are not nearly as big, but I had a similar problem when I put 15mm spacers on my 17" Sport Classics. It seems that the hub, spacer, and wheel mounting surfaces must be scrupulously clean. The smallest bit of dirt or rust keeps everything from bolting down tight and parallel, causing vibration. I had to wire brush the hub surface and the back of my wheels to clean everything up. Of course, mine is my daily driver, so it's exposed to the elements. YMMV.

Tip: be sure to put a thin coat of anti-seize between the aluminum spacer and the steel hub, or else they will weld themselves together.

None for me.

Happy New Year sir.
I checked the invoice and it's not listed. Obviously they're on the car now but judging by my Google Images search they are at least 15mm. Heavy...
