Tarek, they would cost 9.99$ so I would have to send the money to the US (nt got a credit card) then pay for fedex anothe 15$ or so. And then wait for a week while they came.
Some much easier to go to the dealer and pay a little more but save so much time. If I was living elsewhere it would be a different story, but out here in the desert, sometimes the dealer is best
Dr. Bob, I'm not sure what the wheels are called but they come as standard on a Boxster I think. I don't really care what design they are, they all look ok to me it's just it would actually be cheaper to get new wheels with new Pirrelis on then have the original wheels restored and then shod in Good Year Rubber.

Wally, don't you guys quote FOB Dubai? :-)
Sorry CT928, we get a little provincial in the States. It is probably quite a challenge tapping into the 928 parts market from there. I have lived overseas but that was before I got the shark.

It can be a challenge, but also quite fun sometimes.
E.g my rad oil cooler had a hole in and I couldn't (and didn't want to) afford a porsche one so I had a local rad manufacturer replace the oiler cooler with a new one, it cost 50US$.
