18' Porsche 911 (1993-1998) on a 2001 Boxster S
Anyone fitted 18' Porsche 911 (1993-1998) on a 2001 Boxster S?
Advise on if this is possible? And required space please? Thanks, Joel 07788722352 |
I put 993 wide body turbo twists on my '99 which has a 2001 S rear suspension due to having installed 2001 S big red brakes and didn't need spacers. They're 8.5" in front and 10" rear.

18" 987 Boxster S alloys on my 986 Boxster S. Car's standard - no spacers, standard suspension.

Turbo twists were a factory option for the S, my car has them. It's a different part number then the 993 wheels. But turbo twists fit for sure. If you'll need spacers or anything if your car came 17 or not, I don't know.

You don't need spacers, even if the car came with 17's. Mine did and it's fine.

(Front side of wheels aligned) http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1467392706.jpg I have read that they are best with an 18mm spacer (correcting to the prescribed Boxster off-set of 47mm for the 10x18s). From what I have read, the fronts are good. I'm no expert, but I have a few wheels laying around and Google. Really need the full description of Joel's wheels to be sure. |
Very good point, for some reason I assumed that all 996 and 986 18's were the same offset! I stand corrected :)

Attached are photos showing all the marking. What does the H2 of 10Jx18H2 mean? When I held them in position it looked like a 30mm spacer? This pushed it out of the wheel arch. Please advise, nice cars by the way. |
That looks like an 18" wheel 10" wide, with a 47mm offset. Hard to see the offset for sure.
http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1467418034.jpg Here's a chart from a wheel vendor that has that size (No spacer): Porsche Wheel Fitting Chart and Fitment Guide | Alloy Wheels Direct http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1467418124.jpg |
Here's a good guide about how to read wheel size markings:

Et 47
Its says ET 47. When I offered the rims up to the car - they stuck out of the arch when giving enough clearance. Can you confirm these are incorrect please?
|
This might help you, if they are ET 47, they should fit since stock is ET 50 and that is pretty close. My rear 18's are ET 65 from a 911. I had to get spacers for the rear.

So, itīs possible to use 993 turbo hollow spoke rims on a Boxster S -04?
