Boxster S OEM Wheels

[Seadweller]

Greetings,

Do these wheels have a specific name and/or part number? I'd like to find a set for my '98, provided they will fit.

Thanks!

Those are 987 wheels, not same offsets as 986 specification.

Lobster fork? Thought that's what those are called.

or lobster claw.

Someone else should be able to weigh in on 986 fitment...

The official name for those wheels is Boxster S II. As TStone pointed out, they're a 987 18" wheel.



The more popular 18" wheel on a 987 was the Cayman S wheel.



Either of these wheels should work on a 986. There have been various threads here talking about fitting them on 986s.

Here are lobster claws.



And Jay wanted to throw me out because I own 987s. Where would you get your 987 content w/o me?
