On my last 3 Taycan’s I ran 12mm front and 10mm rear… new gentian blue coming I am thinking of 15mm front and 12mm rear… is this too much? I drive the car slammed down and push it hard and don’t want to risk any rubbing ever! :)

I tend to think the spacers just give the car a much more aggressive stance and the wheels sit so far in from the factory.

I have seen people doing 15mm all around with no rubbing issues at all, I have received 15mm H&R spacers for my newly delivered Taycan and will put up pictures in a few weeks when installed. The car is going to PPF tomorrow and then out of town for spring break.

Pictures would be great. Getting E-Mission with the build, interested in the visual with the spacers you have.

@jontybutts I am new to the understanding of spacers, so you are going for aligning the top of the wheel to the arch and then the bottom part of the wheel goes out of the arch as you look creating a flush look to the upper body but more aggressive look to the bottom as it curves down. I wonder what is the downside of doing this in terms of driving feel and dynamics. Do not have Taycan yet, but Macan stock 21 inch with OEM Michelins look pretty out there to me with no spacers, meaning I am good for the look below in stock form.

My default is always the lowest suspension setting, on the roads around here it is not unusual for the car to scrape the road when pushing along (the dealer pointedly commented upon floor scrapes in their video of the underneath when it was last in fir service)

Any way to see the entire car from a 45 degree angle to understand that point of view.
