Found this for you Alan. If interested in this set I'm pretty sure you can pre-order them in these configs. Sadly you'll have to lower the car min with a RoW suspension if you fancy this look!

Front 18x8.5 46mm offest, 225/40/zr18
Rear: 18x10 40mm offset, 265/35/zr18

I Like the Gun metal looks as well I like the clear /gery side markers and the de-ambered front.

Came across this and had to grab it for you. Interesting. You can make nice cars with just a fw oz of paint and a sticker these days ;)

I think I'm going to stick with Gunmetal Rims. I don't want to stand out too much :)

That sounds like a low-key improvement I would do.

That gunmetal looks great on the 04 550 Boxster, not sure about a black car thought. I've seen glossy black wheels and that doesn't work for me either. I like silver wheels on a black exterior Boxster.

What about yellow? A friend had a bumble bee '74 LE 914 was back in the 70's and it looked great.

Sporty and elegant. What Porsche does best.

I like the red calipers and believe it or not chrome wheels, black is the only color I like chrome wheels on but it really makes the black jump out at you.

Why I like chrome wheels on a black car
