I bought 16 inch rims secondhand( tel. dial rims!) and snow tires and find them a bit small.

I don't know if I will keep my 2001 Boxster long enough to have a new clutch/ims replacement done. Everything is working fine at 68k kms. It gets pretty tail happy in winter on slick roads so with no psm I take it easy. Have fun. And yes it starts no problem -30C(-20F) but would not recommend driving it at extreme cold temps.....
These are my wintetirespecs, hope they work

Rear, 17" Cup 3 Turbo, 17 X 8 rim, 225/45 Michelin X-ice
Front, 17" Cup 3 Turbo, 17 X 7,5 rim, 225/45 Michelin X-ice)
