wanted - second set of wheels - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

looking for a second set of wheels to mount all season or snow tires. I'm in the Pittsburgh area, and can drive to pick up if close enough, otherwise need to ship.
Any recommendations on a decent tire for non-summer northeast USA driving?

I don't know know if these might interest you. I'm outside of Philly.

OK, back looking. Apparently I need 17" rims because of the "S" calipers. Are those black turbo twists 17" (they also look too wide for all season or winter tires - not sure). What is your ask?

There are some chrome 17s here in DFW on CL.

Here's the link….

Porsche Chrome OEM Staggered Wheels for 97-04 Boxsters and Carreras

The are 8.5 out of 10, according to poster. I wanted them but need an engine first.

Good luck!
