I know that the spacer kits come with the properly sized lugs but they don't come with a locking lug. For those of you with spacers are you using a locking nut? If so, where did you purchase them?

I purchased a set from RSS that came with lugs in 7mm front 15mm rear. They come in black and silver and range from I think 3mm to 18mm (or more). I haven't installed them yet, but they appear to be of high quality.

I loath the locking keys anyway so was happy to ditch them. I don't like or park in an area where this is much of a concern either though.

Me neither except for P101s. Was at my tireguys place and he asked a cop about wheel theft....they couldnt remember the last one............
Great for dealerships though....$100+ for a set/car. Probably 50% margin ...that can add up. I see steelies with winter tires on them with wheel locks all the time. Key gets lost or strips then what?
That car above looks way better with spacers IMO. Well done.

I had a 991.1 C4s with 7mm on the front and 15mm on the rear. it looked amazing.

I put those on my new 991.2 and the front are tucked in and the rears stick out. someone on here told me to reverse them. im having the car lowered in a week and i will try the 15mm on front and 7mm on rear.

my eye suggest it will be exactly what i want.

I believe 991.2 had different offsets (slightly wider track) than .1 making spacers unnecessary. Rear track is wider for sure.

Default Spacers on 991.2

I added Techart springs, and to my eye, the rear looks fine. I have 10mm spacers on the front and it may need a slight bit more (15mm?)

I have ordered 17mm for the front and 5mm for the rear. Per my measurements this wiuld nice to fill the gaps on my T. The front are really rucked in like 1.2” rear are pretty good and the 5mm would help.
also ordered necessar titanium bolts...you weight saving and all....lol

Picture of the front
