[husker boxster]

With my snows mounted on the Classic IIs that came with my Boxster, I have been looking for another set of wheels for some summer tires. I haven't found anything that looked good and was reasonably priced. If price was no object, I would buy some HREs, but who in there right mind would pay $5k for a set of wheels the ave person would think might be worth $1K? I've looked at the usual sites (Wheel Enhancement, Wheel Dynamics, etc), but nothing strikes my fancy.

Today I ran across a site that listed ACE Spyders for $220 ea. Nice looking wheel and very reasonably priced. However, they only listed the following wheel size as being available for a Boxster:

18 x 8.5 52mm

I have the std 18s on my '01 S:

18 x 7.5 50mm 225/40 front
18 x 9 52mm 265/35 rear

So I have these questions:
1. Will there be clearance issues on the front with an addl 1"?
2. Will the 52mm offset pose a problem on the front?
3. Will a 225/40 work on an 8.5" wheel? (I haven't bought the summer tires yet)
4. Will a 1/2" smaller wheel cause any problems on the rear?

BTW
Last fall I ran across a nice chart from a past thread that listed all the wheel / tire / offsets for Boxsters and I can't seem to find it now. Anyone know where it's located?

Thanks
