Looks hot! Make sure to upgrade to 968 caster blocks on the front control arms, if you haven't already. Otherwise those big wheels will blow out the stock bushings in no time.

No at install used 3mm spacers on the front for center cap clearance then trimed them slightly but wheels/tires are fine no rubbing ABS warning etc. Running 18 x 10 285/30 rears and 18x8 225/40 fronts.

Thanks
