never seen any car on here done as well but knew where I had seen that exact car before.

You don't have to ask him questions, just need some basic reading comprehension.
If you followed the link I gave, you'd find he pretty well posted many details of his mods in that specific thread. Only suggested you PM him if necessary for more details than he openly posted.

those are 20" wheels

I have H and R 23s on my rear wheels (18" 265) with no issues. Your eagle eye is correct; it puts the top of the wheel right at the edge of the fender. I have stock s ride height. I often wonder where the camber will take that edge with a lowered set up. I plan to go with the M030 eventually.

I can post a picture if it helps

Yes lowered it will be... just waiting to figure out how to get a RoW M030 kit in Shanghai to get it down an inch. Now what if it needs to be lowered more to acheive this Cayman-style height.... will I need to cut the springs a bit or stuck and need to use the $4000 adjustable suspension kit only?

Also what happen when you bump hard... will the wheels rub on the fender itself? I bet that when you have a show-looking-car like this one... you are literally stuck on the best roads you can find and can kiss the adventure drive outs good bye?!

About spacers... is there a maximum width that you can't exceed? I plan on putting 23mm spacers on the rear which according to my eagle eyes will bring out the wheel at about the same width as those on the Cayman. Wheels are currently ET50 and I plan on adding a 23mm spacer to that. Safe?!

Many questions at once sorry! Last one is: Anyone has this sick looking style on his/her Boxster. How does it work for you... bump-wise?

Thanks for the kind words and glad I could be of some help. The wheels are my favorite Porsche ones..
