Post Advice Needed on Tires and Spacers

My car has the 18 inch factory Sportline Wheels with the rears running 263/35 x 18 P Zeros. I am ready for some new rear tires and want to order 275/35 x 18 P Zeros. But, I was also thinking about adding the wheel spacer kit that Porsche offers. The fronts are 5mm and the rears are 17mm. Do you think the spacers and the increased tire size will work???

You can certainly go 285/30 x 18 in the rear (with or without) spacers. It is recommended that you go with at least an 8" wheel in front with the same 225/40 x 18 tire (again with or without the spacers).

If you want the Porsche TSB on this then email me (privately) and I will send it to you.
