Sounds like the thread has gotten off track a little!
PorscheCollecto - the spindle spacer you mention should not wear and cause bearing play like you describe. That is to seat the seal on the inside of the hub. The play you're reporting will likely be either wheel bearings or the Bilstein strut top bushing.
When I discovered this on my 911 racecar, once I realized it wasn't the wheel bearings, I noticed the movement between the shock shaft and the strut housing. But my setup doesn't have the strut top covers, so the strut shaft is exposed and the play was easy to see and feel with a finger. In your case, if it's the strut top bushings, there will be play between the strut top cover and the lower part of the strut. You should be able to detect this play with a finger, if it's your problem.
