Hey Mad, I'm just trying to help you out. But, there's no way an 11 inch wheel will properly fit on a 986 boxster . What SpyderRS has done to his vehicle in order make those wheels fit is an absolute abomination ! Not only does it look ridiculous, but I'm also certain that the vehicle isn't even drivable . You have a great looking vehicle . And, there must be a buzzillion wheels to choose from out there . Why do you insist on tempting fate with those bobo wheels ? You should check out the Victor Zehn wheel . It's nice looking wheel with good fitment at a reasonable price .


Here's an example of a very aggressive fitment . My vehicle has 19 x 10's with a +31 offset on the rear . This is about as aggressive as you can go while still maintaining proper clearance, along with excellent handling characteristics for the street .
