    I took the 5mm spacers and saw the car yesterday with the 19' ... it looked good but could handel 10mm spacers .I did ask them to put the spacers on the winter rims.... hope they did it but I am not certain

    Re: First pic of C4S - 20mm

    ..and with the winter tyres I get 295 instead of 305, so it will look more in the inside then with the summer tyres.
    Anyway, the winter setting will not look very good, but it doesn' t matter, it's better like this for the snow.

    Gnil,

    Looks fantastic! You lucky dog (-20mm)! Can't get it in the USA!

    Congratulations- I'm sure you're thrilled after your long wait! More pictures, please! ENJOY!

    Gnil,

    Did you put spacers on the front too, or only on the rear?
    And you had the side skirts painted too, right?

    The 997 C4S looks out of proportion. The 996 widebodies were gorgeous, but this car just looks odd

    I apologize for the offensive tone of my post. What I meant to say was, I don't like what Porsche did with the car. It looks a lot better lowered though.

    Why buy a Cayenne, when you have an AWD Porsche . There used to be a member here, named Pierre, who owned a 996TT and literally drove it in the most violent of snow storms (that car has about 250.000 km on it right now!) and it got him everywhere.
