This thread has renewed my desire to repaint my 17's and put them on my car and sell my aftermarket 18s.

To go back to my opening post, I have a 986S so I have the larger motor and it has the 18" Turbo twist wheels so I am not expecting much negative effect. Also keep in mind, coming from racecars that put over 422 HP to the rear wheels and weigh under 2500 lbs with me in it... all street cars feel slow
My 986 Boxster S is a summer cruiser and I think I am going to like the look of the new wheels.
