Just put a set of those on a customers S3 yesterday,I'll have to print off the picture and show it to him,might make him more careful [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Did you get the Sportec 10&15mm spacers as well Mick?
Nice neat job,held onto the wheel with 3 taper head bolts.
Really fill the arches now,between the 8.5in width and the spacers,look the business,if I hadnt the Porsche wheels I definitely have a set on my own car.

Nice to see this section of the forum seems to have woken up a bit too... [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

Tom
Those Sportec spacers sound good. Wasn't aware of those. I already had 10&15 mm Spacers on the car so couldn't really justify the extra cost for the Sportec ones....
How much are they anyway? Sounds like they could save a lot of time and effort when removing the wheels..

Sorry Steve for the short reply. Was just leaving work..

Will they fit on my 18" Sportecs. I mean PCD ET Offset blah blah blah...
Are they 15 & 10mm...
Have thay got the taper head bolts?

If they fit I'd be interested of course... [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
