Yes, kinda....

The spacer contains the lug studs and is bolted to the front hub.

Do you mean, did it come stock with spacers or can you use spacers?

It did not have spacers front or rear, stock from the factory (unlike the rear of early 944s), due to the change to the aluminum trailing arms which changed the position of the rear hubs compared to the stamped steal trailing arms.

No spacers for the stock wheels, 52mm offset, though thin spacers will work okay. I use 1/4" spacers with Design 90 7x16 front, 8x16 rear wheels, but their fit depends on the alignment specs I'm using.

Are you a CVR member? I'm up the road in Durham - CVR instructor, tech inspector, etc - let me know if you need any more info. My track car is a 924S.

They don't have add on spacers if thats what you mean. The easiest way to think of a 924S is imagine it as an early 944 suspension with early offset stuff. But you need to use late offset wheels because of the narrower fenders...maybe that will help...
