The only reason I'm using spacers is to compensate for the different offset on the 993 wheels I'm using on the S2. Not a fan of them really. Just to widen the track loads the wheel bearings (they can probably take a bit) and changes the slip angle on the front, which can make the car handle strangely. Best to keep the wheels centres where Porsche intended and if you want to fill the arches go up a size, the Boxter wheels are a good option.

Understood.

The only wheels I really like, apart from the originals it has on, are the cup alloys; does the offset on them fill the arches better?

Cheers.
