Hello from VA

Hi everyone, I recently picked up a super clean 99 Boxster with hardtop. Totally new to Porsche so it's been fun working on the car a little bit. Have mainly owned Japanese cars most of my life, so excited to try something different!

Welcome! I haven't seen a lot of white cars, looks good. What are the specs on the rear wheels and tires?

Welcome to a fellow Virginian

With your screen name, I'm assuming we are from the same area code.

You can find some photos of my car here: De-and Changed Some Interior Items

Be sure to wave if you see me on the road.

Good luck with your car.

Love the wheels. I like that they’re a small enough diameter to have some meet in them. I’m in Richmond as well, see you at cars and coffee!

Thanks for the warm welcome. Nice to see some local people here too! Will definitely bring it out to C&C one of these weekends.

Rayrevolver - Rear wheels are 17x9.5 255/40/R17 tires (unsure of offset, picked them up from a guy on rennlist)
