18" cup3īs with spacers
 
Hereīs pics before and after installation. Wheels are original cup3īs and spacers are made by FK (front 5mm, rear 10,5mm). I really like the new look... much better than before. I also changed 8mm longer nuts for rear wheelsī.

Perfection! and excellent job on the paint (like new).

Now be ready to be told off by some members here.... apparently wheels spacers goes along very well with "luck", don't ask! And you wheel bearings will fail, and your IMS will be the next thing, and then kaboum... all the rest will blow-up.

Welcome to 986forum ;)
