JD, did you miss the 47 option for rears? Yes the 62 would be way off, but 47 is the generally accepted offset for 10" rims for Boxsters. You'll still need a wheel spacer or you'll have issues with the wheel rubbing the e-brake cable.

I'd still vote the originals but don't want you to think the turbo replicas won't work.
