2006 C4S Rear Spacers with Studs -- Factory?

the oem multi spoke 'sport wheels' - EXACTLY the ones you have .... unlike almost all the .1+.2 997 wheels came ONLY in one single width (narrow body configuration). on the WB cars they simple added a spacer to the rear (i think it was 17mm).
keep in mind that ALL the other oem wheels, .1 lobster, .2 carrera S, .2 turbo II wheels, etc etc all had had the standard porsche 11inch rear NB+67 / WB+51 wheels manufactured in 2 configurations.
Only the wheels you have on your car were the exception.
Id say your wheels (+ spacers) are original oem.

I bought a set of titanium lug bolts for my 2006 C4S cab, and finally got around to starting to install them. I'd noticed before that my rear wheels had spacers on them, but assumed that was factory and due to the wide rear on the C4S.
I never noticed until tonight that while the front has the expected lug bolts, the spacers in the rear are bolted to the hub, but have studs and the wheels are secured with lug nuts. Is this the factory configuration for the C4S, or does my car have aftermarket spacers on the rear?
