Default Spacers...I tried search...but...

Ok, I know these questions pop up all the time, but I could not find the exact answer to my question. Thanks for replies in advance.

I have an 83 SC. It has factory Fuchs, 7x16 front and 8x16 rear.
I want to give the car a better stance and fill out the wheel wells.
What specifically do i need? Spacer sizes and stud sizes if needed.
My car is lowered a tad lower than Euro specs, and I want to them to be spaced out as far as I can without the car looking stupid or haveing any safety or mech issues.

Also...is this pretty simple to do myself even if the studs need to be replaced?

Thanks,
Michael

What about wheel adapters? 1in up front and 1.5 in the back will allow late-offset wheels to fit.

I dont know a specific answer to your question but id say take a look at your studs and see how far they stick out past the end of your lugs nuts and get that size spacer. You can even go a bit farther if you had too. Mine on the rear are quite a bit in from the end of the nut and i havnt had any problems. I dont know about the porsche but normally changing the studs is a hastle. and a press really helps
