Porsche even had a TSB: TSB #4407, dated March 4, 1999: " Eighteen inch wheels are not approved for use on Boxsters. Use of eighteen inch wheels on Boxsters under severe conditions may result in structural failures of the body and/or suspension".
I figured id reply to you as you seem to be well informed. I found someone local selling these 17 inch 911 wheels that match the tire spec and lug pattern i have on my 99 boxster. Do you believe i should go with these or should i look elsewhere
