Hi. i own a 2000 porsche boxster s and im pretty new to this car and im not really an expert on wheel fitments. i like these ame shallen ax wheels a lot, mostly on an euro car. i dont kno how it would look on a boxster but hopefully it looks good. if anyone has a picture of a boxster with these rims on plz post up. well... im just wondering whats the best size from 19s and 18s from the chart below or would it not even fit on a boxster? thank you to anyone that can help me out.

none will fit. wrong botl patterns.

even if you were to get an adapter, then none of them would work because of the offset.

sorry, that wheel is TOTALLY out, unless you can talk them into custom drilling you a 5x130, in which case it would be really $$$$, and besides, that wheel is pretty heavy, from the looks of it.

it would look good on a dumped MBZ, or an Audi, it would be very VIP. not so much on a porsche.
