Installing Porsche 997 wheel spacers is a good idea to improve the wheel stance and handling. By moving the wheels and tires outward, wheel spacers increase the track width. A wider track gives your car a more aggressive look. Even if you don’t change the OEM tires, the more track width, the better the handling and rollover resistance.
Apart from enhancing the ride quality directly, the Porsche 997 wheel spacers act as auxiliary parts. They create more space to accommodate a big brake kit. In addition, a set of sports absorbers and coilovers is likely the most effective method to significantly improve your car’s handling. With proper wheel spacers, you can upgrade these suspension parts safely.
Porsche 997 Wheel Spacers vs Offset Rims: Which is Better?
The wheel spacers and offset rims are two popular solutions to change your car’s wheel stance. But which is better for your car? Here are the pros and cons of them:
Flexible Offset:
The offset of a wheel is fixed. If you want to alter the offset, you have to change the entire rims. However, the Porsche 997 wheel spacers can change the offset flexibly. For example, 12mm spacers reduce about 12mm offset and 20mm spacers reduce about 20mm offset.
Budget Friendly:
The Porsche 997 wheel spacers provide the same effect as many low-offset wheels, but the price is much lower than offset rims. You can use the savings to buy other upgrading parts.
OEM-like Stance:
The Porsche 997 wheel spacers allow you to achieve a perfect flush wheel style while preserving the OEM wheels and tires.
Bolt Pattern Conversion:
The best part of wheel spacers (adapters) is that they can change the OEM bolt pattern to fit many aftermarket wheels. For example, if you use a 5×130 to 5×112 PCD adapter, you can fit 5×112 wheels on a car with 5x130mm bolt pattern.
