Cayenne GTS + Techarts = need for spacers! (lots of pics)
I bought a set of Techart Formula GTS wheels from Wheel Boutique (whom I whole heartedly endorse as a great company to buy from - Thanks Ben!) but when I mounted them on the GTS it was obvious I needed to add spacers to get the stance looking right. Without them the wheels looked too far under the truck.
Soooooo, I hooked up with Matt at GMP here in Charlotte and bought a set of 15mm H&R spacers for the front and 23mm H&R spacers for the rear along with a complete set of 59mm (shank) wheel bolts. Here is the result, I think the stance looks like it should.
Techart; if you're reading this you need to adjust the offset on your wheels! They are far too expensive to have to add spacers to get them to look right on a vehicle they were specifically designed to fit! Additionally, you need to improve your packaging to prevent the wheels from sliding around in the box and scratching the face of the wheel. It took two sets to get a set that was acceptable (I even had to buff scratches out of that set!). Other than that, it's an awesome wheel!
Here's the b/f picture:

Here are the after (spacers installed) pics:

Thanks. I think they would even look inset on a Cayenne w/o the wheel arches. I moved them out more than the thickness of the arches. Notice the first picture and how far underneath the car they look.
