I wouldn't doubt they are easy to bend. When I was adjusting the parking brake, one of the back wheels fell over onto the driveway and pitted the wheel a pretty good amount while it wobbled around on the wheel face. I didn't realize that the wheel stuck out that much from the tire and that it would damage so easily or I would have made an effort to stop the wheel from falling over.

How would I check if these are aftermarket or original Porsche wheels? I would suspect the original 18" wheels that came on the car would be lighter as I believe the 2003 model 18" wheel were light weight wheels that Porsche started to offer in 2003.

I just don't care much for the cup wheel looks on the Boxster. The rear tires were shot on the car and I would venture to say someone swapped these out while the car was at the dealership.
