911 Wheels on my Boxster
 

I am looking at buying some factory rims off a gentleman with a newer 911 C2.
The rims are this style:

Will these fit my '99 Boxster without any spacers?
Thanks in advance

read furthur
 

Yo, if you read furthur down you will note in red script that these wheels "Fit all Boxsters without spacers", so I imagine you will be ok. I am thinking about these myself but wish they would make them in 17".

His auction says it will fit boxsters. Hmmm...

re.
 

Also I think that the factory rims you are considering are not as wide in the rear as these Italian aftermarkets. Again, I believe you should be ok and the factory rims I think are even lighter in weight. If you get a good deal go for it and send us some pics when you have them mounted on the car.

Thanks, just to clarify the rims pictured are the style of the rims I am getting, but I am getting the Porsche factory rims from a C2 911. I have seen the rim on some Boxsters, but I've never known if there was a Boxster rim and a 996 rim, or if it was the same part.
The deal should be pretty good, depending on how much tread is left on the tires. . . anybody know the life expectance of bridgestone potenzas? :D lol

The ebay Wheel Enhancement wheels have the :
"Sized (2)18x8et 50mm and (2)18x10et 47mm"

You are looking at 911C2 factory wheels, which
may be different offset OR may be the correct offset.

...need to check with your seller about the offset and
look in your Boxster manual for the correct offset for
18" wheel sizes.

Good luck, :cheers:

PS: most all can be made to fit with spacers
