Where did you get those and did you have the custom painted or ordered that way?
Thanks

Tirerack used to sell them, but I think SSR stopped making them for Porsches recently. They still make them for BMW, Audi, and Nissan GTR, others, but not in a 5-130 bolt pattern which is required to fit Porsche. It was offered in traditional silver or the gunmetal color, which are the ones I have.

At the time, they made these for Porsche fitments so that spacers would not be required, but make sure if you pick up a used set, to get the correct offsets for the Boxster. Mine are:
Fronts 18x8 / 5-130 / ET49
Rears 18x9.5 / 5-130 / ET43
