Rear: PN 996.362.140.50 18x10 width offset 65mm

I run tires sizes 235/40/18 front and 275/35/18 rear on these wheels.

BTW, the Sport Design also came in a 8" width for the front but I don't have the spec's handy for that wheel.

Same here on my 1999 C4

"Sexy rolls" translation of what they say here about nice looking wheels (in Chinese lol)

Haven't forgot about you Rick, you'll know what I mean when you read this I'm sure

Luck with your project mate

Early 996's came with 265/35/18 tires & therefore 9" width wheels. I think 10" wheels were optional & became standard in 2002 along with their 285/30/18 tires.
2001 Turbo came standard with 11" rear wheels.

My Boxster S came from the factory with 7.5/ 50/18 and 9/ 52/18 as you expected. Does the rims in your post have a clearcoat over the outer lip or is it just polished?

Thanks for the info.

I stole that picture from a different post just so someone would know the wheels I was talking about, but the lip is polished only. Looks good, doesn't it?
