Will 06 Cayman S wheels/tires work on an 03 Boxster S?

Springman26- Thanks. The car feels much more planted with the larger/wider setup. It's slightly stiffer but not at all back breaking. No regrets!

Johnny Danger- The tire was very close (around 1/4") to the bottom of the lower strut seat.

Thanks for the tip on the adjustable tabs! Would you be able to tell me how to make the adjustments more in detail? That would be very helpful!

I recall a few years back when my vehicle was undergoing a body kit project, we ran into a similar problem where my front tire was making contact in lower frontal area of the fender shield. To make a long story short, the person doing the work discovered that the shield was adjustable. Just exactly how and where the tabs (I call them tabs for lack of a better description) where located - I don't recall. All I can suggest is that you take your wheel off and poke around in there. It may not be obvious, but there's a way to reposition the shield further inward toward the bumper.

The plastic liners have plastic rivets that connect to metal brackets. you will most likely have to bend the brackets to push the liners back . not any real adjustment there. I just installed a new bumper and was all up in there a couple of days ago.

That's probably more likely the case. Funny how tech's call it an adjustment, when in fact it's more like a reassignment ! All I know is that they were able to tweak the shield without harming anything.
