Any suggestions for wheel spacers?

I bought the spacers from Amazon from a supplier called Venom Wheel Accessories. The spacers are American made w/ the bolts made in Germany. They have a lot of different widths available and you can get package sets of four spacers with different width front and back.

Go to Amazon and search "Venom Wheel Accessories Black Porsche Wheel Spacers" and it'll list a boatload. Search around until you find what you're looking for.

They ship fast - two days from ordering to doorstep.

This look like them?

Would you suggest doing 15mm or 20mm rear? And do you have the same wheels or pictures of 15 and 20mm?

I'm at work, so sorry, no pictures.

I think with your 18" wheels being 1/2 inch wider than my 17" wheels, I'd stick with 15mm in the rear, no wider than 20mm.

I'm a little more conservative than Ike on the rear (my 20mm vs his 25mm), but neither is wrong. Be aware what Ike says about where his tires sit with 17" wheels (8.5" wide) and 25mm spacers. You may find you're a little too wide with 9" wide wheels and 20mm spacers.

Ike, your thoughts?
