It's been raining all day. so I didn't get to get it outside in the light. here a couple of crappy vids. sorry about the quality. Really need to see it in person to appreciate. I was just hooking up my trickle charger before I leave tommorow, shot these real quick.

Did order mine from Maxspeed Motorsports, front 7mm/back 14mm, set with new bolts. Very nice quality and Nello is a nice guy to deal with. First 3 pics without, last 3 pics with spacers.

I also installed the front strutbrace from Schnell. I know opinions are divided about this mod but in all of my 'verts I had one and it made a difference in each of them including the Boxster.

Driving impressions are positive, car feels more planted and the front end is rigid, some of the front end movement is gone, less cowlshake, for sure!
No vibrations whatsoever, all in all very positive about this change and -of course- the looks!

On to the pics, again 1-3 w/o, 4-6 with spacers.

find, but there 7mm spacers are not hub centric like there 15mm. Is there still enough hub left sticking out for the front wheel to catch on, since its a fairly thin spacer????




To answer your question, yes, enough left though just a bit.

BTW, my wheels/tires are the stock 17"

Took another drive today, all is good and the handling def improved!

Looks good. not quite enough spaceage for me though. 23 rear 15 front will bring the tires completely flush with the fenders. Yours may handle better though. mine feels like the front is a little slower when turning. anyways mine will be for sale as soon as I can get pics up. Returning car to stock and selling it.

I have 15mm front and I believe 21mm rear. Perhaps it's 23. It's been a while since I installed them. It was an H&R set. Absolutely LOVE the looks!

Just my 2cents - I have been running 23 in front and 33 in the rear Porsche spacers (yes Porsche sells spacers with studs) with 11" techart wheels did not have a rubbing problem until I intalled the ROW suspension which lowered the car about 1 1/2 " but it handles like it was on tracks, I expect to evetuallly have to replace the rear wheel bearings but other than that everything is OK I installed them over a year ago and just recently flared my fender to accomdate the wider wheels-attache before and after pics
