Wheels

18"x 8.5" fronts (52 offset) and 18"x 10" (47 offset) rears. Would these wheels fit my 98 Boxster? Thanks for your help in advance.

Oh, no problem! I had them bookmarked from when I was looking for new wheels.

I take it you found some used wheels? Just make sure that they are true. Have them spun up on a balancer before you pay or at least be able to return them. I found several sets that were possibilities until I checked them.

Yes I found a set. They are currently on a 993. I have not seen them in person yet, but they sound interesting. Thanks for your help.
