Quickurt, I never thought of that.
When parked, there is 2mm of clearance, I looked at the strut tower and there is rubbing of what I assume is the tire/rim.

Looks like I should get larger spacers.

But here is another question........I was told that the larger the spacer, the larger the lever arm of the set up will become and that puts pressures not engineered into the design of the bearings and axile/cv joints/struts.

I went with 7mm because it was the least I could get and still clear the strut tower, and 5mm is offered by porsche factory as an option, so I assume that it is within tolerances.

Any thoughts?
