Hi all, I know what I'm looking for but don't know it's effects. Maybe you can help. Here goes, I have an 07' C4Scab, currently lowered 1/2 inch at all corners and the stock turbo wheels, that came with the car when I bought it. I'm looking to bring the tires/wheels out for a better/more aggressive look, I occassionally track my car and may end up getting track wheels if I need to later on, but would like to get the agressive look of having the wheels out further. I know that too large a spacer may change the steering dynamics, does this mean, that I may need to add more suspension work to compensate? I have the the bilstein coilovers and sway bars, plus front strut. I don't want the wheels to rub, thus I would appeciate your imput; I think I would like at least the 7mm in front and 15mm, maybe more, need to see pictures of the rear, if that works? Your time to answer this is much appreciated, thanks

I had the same problem with my turbo, and at the end I leave it as it is because one is for sure, the car will looks much better, but it will not ride as good as it is now!
I may go for the wheels when the are available in the correct offset for the 996!

I understand, but I'm okay with adding extra suspension work to get the look I want.
