Default 991 C4S Rear offset on Ultraleggera HLT terrible

Got a set of Ultraleggera HLTs for winter tires.

Unfortunately, the rear offset is bad on a C4S.

I want to buy spacers to push the wheels out to a more flush stance.

I know Porsche sells 5mm spacers. I think this needs 15mm. Any downside?

Downsides: Costs. Added unsprung weight (not a huge issue for winter performance).

Don't go too aggressive (wide) as not to kick up too much winter mess on your rear end and bumper.

The wheels themselves look pretty good though

No issue pushing unsprung weight further from centerline?
