No, nb here -- I already have a few sets of these wheels around the house, otherwise I might jump on them for daily use

The ad narrative indicates these are from a Boxster, so the rear offset may or may not be compatible with a 993. The 18x8 fronts are ET50, which will work, but the 18x10 rears need to be ET65, and the ad doesn't indicate what the rears are. Also, I thought that Boxters with 18's had 9.5" rears, but I may be mistaken.

Boxster is a 9" - I have them on my car as the PO got them unknowlingly. My fenders are rolled slightly to avoid rubbing on my lowered car. So, finding the 10" with the right offset is preferable. I was going to do this myself and then decided that the difference in width would be imperceptible for street use and more importantly, the narrow width causes the 265mm tire to tuck slightly giving a little more protection against "curb rash" for when my wife drives the car.
