Well I’ve done 500 miles or so and have had no issues at all. Recommend to anyone thinking of getting spacers.

I believe the OEM lug bolts have a shank length of 27mm. So if you’re going with 15mm wheel spacers, the correct shank length would be 42mm. 45mm shank length would work too.

Homemade - I welded a steel bar down the middle. couldn't find any I liked that didn't require a different bumper so decided to DIY.

What were your front and rear specs/offsets before the 15mm wheel spacers if you don’t mind me asking?

So, finally installed 10/10. I tried 10/12 but the rear wheels are too wide for 12mm. Although it is a 295/30 wheel it is 325 wide. Maybe because it is a Porsche marked wheel.
