I passed on the 996 Carrear 5 spokes. The 10" rears require the spacers to clear the brake Calipers and Porsche does not recommend the use of spacers. Certainly not if you Boxster is still under warranty.
My local Porsche Club guy said Boxsters with spacers are only for street use and should not be taken on the track.
Stick with the 9" rears.
