I will be collecting the Boxster racing car from the body shop next week (I hope), and the next phase is to get new wheels.

Along with fixing some small on track damage from this season, they have widened the car by 2" on each side at the front and 3" on each side at the rear so that i can fit wider wheels and tyres.

I was considering picking up a set of used 996 TT wheels, but I am not sure if the offset on the 996 TT is the same or not as the 2001 Boxster S?

Anyone know if the 18x11 from the 996TT has the same offset as the normal 2001 Boxster S, or will I have to run with large spacers to make them clear the suspension?
