OEM wheel match?

[GDavis62]

What can I do to match my OEM 17-inch wheels with new ones for just the passenger side? Without paying the dealer his huge price. We slammed a large pothole and did some bends in both front and rear rightside wheels. The Tire Rack sells a model name called "Mille Miglia" that look in the pics like my wheels. Would Porsche have used these as OEM wheels?

Sorry about your wheels. I lost the driver's side wheels after about 1 month of ownership when the Boxster turned EXACTLY where I pointed rather than the understeer I was used to.

http://www.wheelenhancement.com/ provided good service and prices replacing my turbo-look II (with factory takeoff tires.)

I was able to buy 2 wheels fpr my 2001 Boxster from www.car-parts.com for 150.00 each. You can also try Keystone automotive they repair and refinish damaged wheels (many locations but the CA facility is the biggest). There are also ads in car and driver, road and track, etc for others that repair damaged wheels. Last source is E-Bay......I've been able to find some very odd items that I needed from e-bay at very resonable pricing.

Good luck!

17" wheels are very cheap. You can pick up a set on eBay with tires for under $1,000. I would use this opportunity to get a set of 18" wheels all around if I were you. I never understood why they even offered 17" wheels on these cars when the 18" look a million times better.
