Below is information that I got from Wheel Enhancement. Any comments on the info they have provided? Is there any issue created by these differing offsets, or with the use of spacers on the rear wheels only?
According to Wheel Enhancement:
The wheels on the 2006 Boxster S have the following offsets:
8x18" 57mm
9x18" 43mm
The 2002 996 Carrera 5-spoke wheels have the following offsets:
8x18" 50mm
9x18" 52mm
Using the 8x18" 2002 wheel with a 7mm more aggressive offset on the front is not a problem, the wheel will be well within the fender on the car. The rear 9x18" 2002 wheel sits too far inboard without using a spacer, affecting the handling as well as having a negative affect on the appearance. Using a 17mm Porsche Factory wheel spacer (and silver anodized lug nuts) will bring the rear wheel out 8mm further than the stock wheel, compatible with the front wheel's position.
