I am running H&R spacer 15/20 combo currently.
Had the same brand spacer on my street/track 997 C4S, previous F15 X5, previous 964 C2 used on track too.
No issues in running spacers at all. I even sold hundreds and hundreds sets of spacers to my customers, no issues heard yet.
As long as you are using a good spacer and it is proper fitment, you shouldn't have a problem or worry about it.

You know that front and rear track are different even without the spacers?
The rear have wider wheel and tire setup than the front. So, the rear have about 1.5" wider traction than the front.

I know, i meant i wanted to keep the same difference and not increase it any further. Not that it is an issue though.

Yes you are absolutely right. Running spacers require longer bolts too. So far no issues on mine too.

Hahaha.
I would do either Eibach or AC Schnitzer.
Enough to fix the look but doesn't make you stuck in the parking structure.
I know you guys have pretty tight parking spaces and some ramp have aggressive angles.

Hee hee. Yeah over here, land is scarce....btw my previous cars I only do eibachs but this time round, I do mot wish to drop it too low to retain the practicality of driving to steep ramps and parking spaces. Ac springs seem to not lower the car too much

I have H&R springs, bolts and spacers for the 530e. I just took them off after about 3k miles (like new) to put on the G11 20" wheels.

They are for sale if anyone is interested. PM me..
