Damnit, I had gone to Amazon a while back to make a point about the price of one of those grating, wrong, terrible-no-good Stant radiator caps on a facebook thread, and now Amazon is trying to sell them to me. Karma's a beyotch....

Have them in both my 928s at different pressure ratings (13 psi in the Euro S because the stock 16 psi cap makes the front hose leak and the 13 psi one doesn't and 10 psi one in the Spyder because of the water bridge issue) and haven't had any issues.

All that's keeping you from splitting a radiator hose and stranding you on the highway is 3psi and a Stant radiator cap? You're braver than I thought.

You'll like their fit. As tempting as it might be to go with 20mm spacers in the rear, keep it to 15mm or else you'll have to roll the fenders. Ask me how I know

Do those even fit rolled, like when you hat a bump or dip? Looks like the tire is still rubbing on the outer 1/2" and the fender is bowed out a bit below the rub strip.

Yea, still rub a tad over bigger bumps and dips - mostly on the street, not on the track. I didn't want to get too crazy with the Louisville Slugger (AKA professional fender rolling device). Since it's the track car, I'm not too concerned about some very minor rubbing.

Before rolling and spacers

The before pic looks great IMO. Are you running a bunch of rear toe for the track - looks like it, and that may explain the outer tread wear more than rubbing. Love the gumball stickly tires too - bet that thing is pretty glued with those.
