Thanks CJ, that was the info I was looking for.
Thanks to Perfectlap for the CCW link. I had lost them in a hard-drive meltdown, I was interested in using their wheels on a race project that fell through couple years back.
Check these out: http://www.ccwheel.com/files/wheelprofiles-display.php?id=C140
They have 18x8.5 and 18x9.5, but I don't know the et on them.
If I remember the Carreras that fit the 987 are 18x8 et 50mm front and 18x10 et 47mm rear.

Those are nice but damn they are pretty expensive starting at $2700 and the smallest wheels starting at $675 each. Either wheels you decide to buy, Im sure they will look great on your car!

I thought I had a set of these, off a Cayman S, for 1500 bucks, but it turned out to be misrepresented. They wouldn't fit the box.......

I had those BBS wheels on a previous car. Both front wheels dented just like my factory Carreras. Paid $65 to get the dent removed and sure enough they dented a second time.
Reminded me of my Cannondale bicycle. Forked over $1000 for a frame. Went out for a ride came back, leaned the bike against a table..bike fell over and hit the edge of a chair. DENT...size of a quarter, talk about an eye sore. Cannondale said solly buddy you bought it you bent it.
Go for the good stuff if you plan on keeping the car long term.

You need to get out of New Jersey, Perfect lap. I've never dented a wheel, down here in Florida. I did ruin two on my Acura CL on Long Island.......

Ha, hahhhhh!! We are known for our layed back lifestyle, lapman! I go to the city and can't figure out why you guys are all running around with your heads chopped off. We'll get it done, take it easy!
If you go near the area, you MUST go to Mt. Dora. It's northeast of Orlando.
Magnificent.
