WOW that looks really cool with the photo shop lowering trick! Great job, DJ.
Hey Drburton, you will notice a very different dirt pattern and potential for some stone chipping at the very bottom of the wheel well/bumper area with the wheels kicked-out 7mm. Just be carefull. |
Wow, the lowering really does look good. I wasn't even really considering that. Now you have added another mod to my list. I was hoping the list would get shorter and not longer, before my wife shoots me.

Don't worry if she shoots you, Burton...she is after all...a medical professional!

I have a buyer for my old Boxter S wheels, and he is a Cayman owner. Just want to verify that these wheels will fit on a Cayman with no issues. I think they will, but I want to be 100% sure before i send them out.
Thanks. |
Drburton, yes, just reference this wheel list from Porsche:

doc, wheels look awesome, PM sent asking for tips on purchase....I'm going in....
|
drburton, I am considering getting the exact same setup you have. I love the look of the 19" Carrera Classics. Have you noticed any difference in the ride since you made the change? Also, where did you get them installed?
Thanks |
I had them installed locally at Samaritan Tire. My neighbor owns the company so he gave me a good deal on the tires.
I expected the ride quality to deteriorate, but it didn't. I actually think it is improved a bit but this is more based on the change in tires. I had the standard Michelin Pilots on my original wheels and I put the PS2s on the new wheels. Seems like the PS2 has a softer ride with less road noise. So no noticeable deterioration in ride quality. I'm very happy with the results, the 7mm spacers are great too. Little wider track but its a subtle change (the wheels are still inside the wheel wells). |
Shoud've gone with these....
|
Eslai, those are some sweet rims my friend.
I've been looking for something similar...but with a unicorn motif. |
RONAL BEARS! I wonder how many sets of those have been sold in the history of... those.
|
They're closing them out now, and you can't have any, they're all mine. MINE.
(well, too bad they really only come in like 14x6 right now. Probably a 4-bolt pattern too. Alas....) |
So doc...DO I see a lowered Boxster in Horizon?
|
It definately looks nice but I don't think I'm going to lower any time soon. My most likely next mod will be a new exhaust and even that is a ways out.
|
I agree...coz' that's the advice I got from a local shop here..I was talking to the owner asking about lowering the box and the first thing he ask is..is it for the looks and I said, yah...he turn around and said, it will look good but for the money that you will spend, im better off upgrading the exhaust first.
Here's what he recommend for my mods (in ff: order) -Exhaust -Big Brake kit (When the factory parts need to be replaced) -ECU (but he said not really needed for a D/D) -Spoiler kit -Suspension/lowering and if i total it all together...I just need to add few more dollars to get engine swap :D OMG...the MOD addiction..aaarrrgggghhhhhh! :D :D :D |
