Default orderd 18mm spacers for the cayenne

i have 22 inch dvinci carismas for my cayenne they are 22x8.5 and they are very close to teh brake calipers so i need to have some distance in between them do you think 18mm is enough to clear the distance between the wheel and the brake caliper

I think 18mm is too much. 14mm should be more than enough. I have Gemballa 22" wheels,and the factory powerkit brakes, which gave me clearance problems. now with 14mm spacers there is plenty of clearance(i can put my finger between wheel and caliper)

okay i assume they will fit so 18mm will fit a 22x8.5 inch wheel with an offset of 40 .....correct

why 8.5?

I think you have a bad offset wheels, I have 22x9.5 and I don't need spacers on mine, should have bought HRE because they custom fit it for your car

Yeah....8.5 seems a bit narrow, I guess you would need 18mm maybe more. Best way to be sure is to ask the wheel maker what they recommend for your car.Im sure DaVinci have put these wheels on a cayenne before,so they should know exactly what to do.
