I guess its time to make a little switch from 6speedonline to a more technical forum community, so Renntech here I am :D

I was wondering if anyone here have heard or used Racemax Spacers (16mm) on a 997.1 ? I've searched a bit but what I came up with was the spacers are popular and mostly for BMW and MINI crowds. My local shop also told me that I could use them, and used them hard, and they have provided the spacers to such cars as BMW M5 etc.

I have contacted Racemax Italy and they have assured me I could drive my hard with their spacers with no problems/no worry.

Has anyone have any experience with this brand? Could I still drive hard and not worry about it? Bolts hold strong enough for hard/daily driving? Or even tracking the car?

But if its comes to buying a new set of spacers from Porsche, I guess I will have to chip in once more but be on the safe side.

Thank you!

Don't know about that brand but... Do a search here on "wheel spacers". There are a lot of good threads and discussions. Especially about longer lugs with the spacers..

:welcome:

I put stock spacers on. I think they were 5mm. Not

much different on the track. Just had to be more careful with curb

damage. The bigger spacers will add more pressure on the suspension.
