Anyone running 19" Victor Innsbruck or Victor Baden wheels?
 
I've emailed Victor Wheels about the hub bore size on their 19" wheels and have not gotten a reply back from them since Wednesday. Everywhere I read the 19" wheels have a hub bore of 71.5 and the Boxster has a 71.6 hub bore.

Do these wheels actually work on the Boxster?

If you are running either set in 19" size, please post a pic(s) of you car.

Thanks!

According to their fitment page, yes:

Here's some pics playing with their tool on an '06.

Somehow the 18s looked better to me though.

I just received a 4th wheel to complete an extra set that I have. I still need to put rubber on it, so they are not installed. The Amazon seller I used " Buy Wheels Today" took about a week to ship and didn't send any tracking info, but it all worked out well.

I have 18" LeMans, black with a chrome lip.

Thanks 78F350. I've done the wheel configuration deal on there, even with Johnny Danger on the phone with me, he did it also. Both him and I could only find that when switching to the 19" wheels they showed a 71.5 hub bore and the Boxster is a 71.6 hub bore.

Victor Wheels is horrible at returning emails. I've sent two to them now, with no reply.

With nobody replying to this thread it makes me wonder more about the fitment.

However, I did send a message to a seller on eBay (eurowheelsusa 100% Positive feedback) about a different brand of wheels that showed it would fit the Boxster, but had a 71.5 hub bore listed. The reply from them was.

"Hi, Yes these are hub centric for all Porsche models 71.56 to be specific."

So by this I gather that the hub bore on the Boxster is actually 71.56mm, some round it up, some don't?

Whether 71.56mm is 71.5mm or 71.6mm?

You're splitting hairs. Literally.
