Here are pictures of my car with 2000 C4S wheels...

Let me try again the previous picture was too small...

 

Dan G,
You say you listed only wheels that bolt straight up to our cars without the need for spacers. I have a set of the 17" Boxter twists but if I bolt them straight on it looks like, to quote someone else, "a cat sitting on a can of tuna" the wheels, especially the front ones sit way to far inside the gaurds. Whats up with that??

 

Dan, awesome site. Your effort is much appreciated. I'm glad to contribute.

16" 968 wheels:

 

I should have specified, cars with late offset wheels. 87+ cars had 52mm offset, earlier cars had ~28mm offset (*I think*).

RacerX made a great site about wheel spacers...

So 87+ cars can use most of those wheels (except maybe the 12 inch wide ones!) without spacers, while it looks like 86- cars need a 21mm spacer up front and a 28mm spacer in back.

 

Ok, I'm dragging this back up to the top to try and get some new pictures for the guide. If you have a good shot of some wheels that I don't post it up (and tell me if they're replicas or what size/brand of aftermarket wheels).

 

2000+ Boxster S rims

 

These are Ronal ACT's (made in Germany) 17 x 8.5 and 9.5.
I bought them used, I don't think they are available anymore.

 

Not a good pic by any means, car is covered in crap from the trees, but you get an idea of how the boxster wheels look on our cars. Although I think they look good, I would really like to trade for some 17" c2 (cup 1) wheels.

 

not my car, but I'd really like a set of those Sport Designs

 

Dan,

Thanks for bringing this back up, I had lost track of it. It really is fun for me, to see my car used as a reference.

Thanks,

 

Winslow, your car is the DEFINITION of what I think a 951 should look like. You rock.

I'll take a gift of a set of your lightweights anytime. Thanks.

 

Here's mine with 17" 996 twists

 

I had seen this mentioned a few months ago, http://www.tsw.com/ offers aftermarket wheels that are made to order. You can get lug and offset patterns to request on a lot of their wheels.

NOW the question, I have looked at racerx's link and at DanG's link and the offset is left off?

I have an '83 with cookies? Anyone have a link to help me down the golden/alloy path?

Edit:

Figured it out. '83 cookies are 15x7 with 23mm offset. Rears added a 23mm spacer which means 46mm.. Look at how easy that was.. LOL

Why did they have to throw the conversion from metric to english in there wigh the wheel sizes?

these are my new RONALS. i LOVE these rims.
