Will these wheels fit?

[Adam]

Hey guys, I know several of you have put these repro carrera wheels on. They are all over ebay and they all seem to be 18x8 in the front and 18x10 in the back. My question is will these fit without spacers/modifications? My concern is with the back wheels, since they are wider than stock. I don't want any rubbing issues going on. My car is not lowered. If they are not bolt on, do you know of carrera repros that are offered in a 18x9 inch size?

Look just like the 18x10 a lot of members have, including myself. No mods, no spacers, and no rubbing from the wheels. I run a 265 without problem.

Thanks Tim, I was wondering because some Ebay vendors say they won't fit a boxster for some reason.

In that case you should probably verify the offset to be safe. I ordered mine from Wheel Dynamics (by phone, not ebay). Mention 986forum and get free shipping.

Adam, how are those rims different from the ones on your car now? They look the same.

They are the same. I want to buy a set and have them painted black since nobdy sells them that way. A guy with a white 911 turbo had black carreras on his and I fell for the look.
