We have a GT4 and are just able to get up the driveway without scraping. As noted, the GT4 is very stiff so when you come up the driveway at an angle, the passenger wheel is about 3 - 4 inches off the ground.

We are now thinking about getting a 991 GTS for my wife and were debating the front axle lift option ... is it needed. I know that the GTS is lowered ~ 20 mm but I assume that it is still not as low as the GT4? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

At least in the GT3, the front overhang is longer than on the GT4, which is why the former car has more scraping issues despite a similar ride height. If the dealer has a 991 GTS on the lot now, you might measure the length of the front overhang. If you can find the published approach angle of the GTS, I know that information has been published by Porsche for the GT4 for comparison.

Sorry couldn't be of more help.

I have the exact same driveway problem as you, including the rear pax wheel going 3-4 inches off the ground as I angle up onto the driveway coming home.

I had a 991.1 GTS from 2015-2017. It had the same problem, but less of it. Still had to angle to get in or out, but slightly less, and on some other recurrent nose-scrapers around my town, the GTS would barely clear and the GT4 barely scrapes. It's close, and the GTS is unlikely to solve problems the GT4 has unless the 4 is just a couple mms away from not scraping. But it is a little better in the 991GTS.

Just our of curiosity, are you taking this at enough of an angle? Honestly, it's a very cheap piece to replace. Just use it as a feeler and enjoy the heck out of the vehicle. It makes up for it 100x over.
