Any pros or cons to either? (Other than the 18's seem to cost more to put shoes on 'em?)
For that 17" wheel set, it is from a 996 generation 911, the front is exactly the same as 986 Boxster but the back is a little different, it is .5" wider and the inner barrel is closer to the strut than the 17x8.5 ET 50 Boxster wheel, people do run this setup on the 986 Boxster, you may need a small, like 3mm, spacer in the back.

Those 2000 Boxster 18" BBS wheels, if it is the ones I'm thinking of, look rally good, got a picture and the wheel sizes and offsets?
