They are nice! I have never seen that wheel before. Wasn't an 18 inch stock on the 04S Special Editions?
I was lucky to find my car had the factory option of XRL 18" that I wanted.
They are a two piece wheel that was stock on the 01 911 GT3 and option for 911
and Boxster S.

One of the sets I found was 18x8 et:50 for fronts and 18x10 et:65 for rears. Does some one know something different?

Day I drove it home. Wires everywhere.
I did a CD holder delete so it's just a matching shelf, and had a Kenwood Excel or something like that installed. Factory Bose sound system so sub box, door speakers, dash speakers. Short shift knob. Notice it's an S model but has black face gauges. Also has special design around the tail pipe and the tips.
