They can accept up to a 15mm spacer.

I messaged the vendor to ask some specific questions.
He confirmed they are an R14 ball seat lug nut and the studs & lugs have a 14x1.5 thread pitch, as does Porsche. I may have bought a red herring, but I reasoned that if the thread pitch and lug nut seat are the same spec as my car, I may not have screwed myself.


Spacers were from eBay vendor titanwheelacc. They don’t have the set I bought up for sale currently; but I bought a set of 4 15mm hubcentric 5x130 spacers to fit Porsche & Audi. They cost me $62 & free shipping.


As of yet, I haven’t got the goods in my sweaty little hands.
In laws come home from FL end of next week, so I hope to have installation complete as soon as the pull out of my driveway.
