CamsPorsche - The new setup!
First off many thanks to Ray at ROTecCarbon and our own Knight for the advice on fitment. Thanks Guys. It was their cars that inspired me to copy them...yup don't care I love this look!
My 993 C4S is running RUF 19's (knockoffs) with Pirelli P-Zero tires (sizes F 235/35/R19 R 295/30/R19). Front has 5mm spacers installed while the rears are 7mm for that flush look. We thought at first that the tires would rub but alas not an issue. Front is set at 63.5mm while the rear is 65.5mm for the rake effect. To be honest the car is still settling so I'm thinking we'll raise the front to reduce the rake - it looks too low for my tastes.
I added clear corners and a new 6-speed shift **** and now the car is a lot faster...haha.
I'll have better photos taken once I settle the car and my wife has some additional shooting time...
Pics? Okay here they are:

But it does look slightly a bit too raked, I think a flat, even appearance looks best on these cars again all personal preference. Technically your suppose to have I think a 1 degree fwd rake but perception wise you can't tell due to the fenders.
So I guess you could raise the front or lower the rear if possible. Drive it as is for a bit and then decide IMO.

Hi Cam. I think your car looks good. I just went through this myself. Installed new Bilsteins and M030 springs. Had the car set at ROW sport height specs. I really like how the car handles and looks now. Obviously, I don't have 19s which would be a factor. Attached is the requisite comparison pic. Sorry for the large image size. Hope this helps.

Yes and no. I grew tired of having four extra flywheels on the 4S. But if the wheels ARE light enough, sure why not?
As far as ride height, I prefer minimizing bump steer. I hate bump steer. And the bizarre tire wear that results from working outside of designed operating parameters. Especially with a soft suspension.
