What are the widest spacers I can put on a stock 986 S without rubbing. I was thinking 20mm front, 15 rear, but I want to use stock bolts for the wheel and thought I'd ask who sells a complete kit. Advice on width and sourcing would be appreciated.

I have the 18" wheels.



I would not use regular spacers and longer bolts for 20mm or wider. You can get hub centric spacers that use your stock bolts with lugs and nuts to attach your wheels. They aren’t cheap, but shouldn’t wear out your wheel bearings so fast.

I believe porsche recommends using equal spacing front and rear. I could be incorrect though, just remember a thread with that mentioned.

No ****************, Dick Tracy. All this talk about rubbing, and you've got inches. I could fit 6 of my dicks in there.

My question was general in that you've a ****************ing grand canyon between your wheels and the lip. Who in their right ****************ing mind would not see that and still ask about rubbing? Or even mention the absence of it. Am I ****************ing missing something here?

Please read carefully? I read for a ****************ing living.**************** off.

You're from Seattle? I'm sorry. I'll try to speak slower next time.

Have a nice day.

Yes, you are missing something, I was simply responding to the question from "ShortRound " as to if there was any rubbing. Perhaps you should be venting your frustration to "ShortRound" he asked the question.
Sorry, I did not intend to question your intelligence or manhood.

Thank you for pointing that out. Please accept my apology.

Yeah... Shortround. WTH. :rolleyes:

No apology necessary, thank you and, again, my apology for the comment.

Clearly I wasn't bragging about girth. Fitting in 6 dicks wouldn't be fitting, no pun intended, for a well endowed man. Maybe I should have said 1 dick. ;)

Well A8 certainly has no dick room with the 20mm spacers in! Hahaha maybe a finger:D

Well have my 15mm spacers and lug bolts on hand now. Hopefully, get them installed Saturday.
