Spacers

• Use the spacers only together with wheels and fastening parts approved by Porsche.
  Before having spacers fitted, find out about the current approval status.

Mounting an emergency spare wheel
If 5 mm spacers are mounted, these must not be removed to mount an emergency spare wheel.

Fitting snow chains
The use of snow chains is not permitted when 5 mm spacers are mounted.

Risk of damage to the wheel housings if the 5 mm spacers are not removed before fitting snow chains.

• To permit the fitting of snow chains, have the 5 mm spacers removed on all 4 wheels.
