You might post over on the Boxster board, too. They should fit with 17mm rear spacers. Also, more info other than "turbo twist replica" might be useful such as what brand, etc. Yours are probably Turbo Look replicas.

Do you have a photo of your car with those wheels on? Also, what is the size of the rear tires? Thanks

i don't have a photo with them on my car because i didn't mount tires on them ever or anything like that.... they are brand i just took them out of the box to take a look at them.... i ordered these for my car and then got a good deal on gt3 replica rims so im going with the gt3 rims... the rears are 10 inches wide so u can fit up to a 295/30/18 tire on the back..... but i would recommond going with a 285/30/18...... i know for a fact they will fit but if you really want i can test fit them on my car and take a picture... if you want a picture now you can go to the thread called Pic Request: 996 Aerokit 1 Car With turbo Twists i would post the link but im at work and these computers won't let me

65 offset is the correct offset for narrow body cars in the event you needed someone to back up his info.

I can second that- right out of my '99 Owner's Manual, for 18" wheels offset is 50mm front, 65 rear and wheel sizes are 7.5 J X 18 H2 (F) and 10 J X 18 H2 (R), for both summer and winter tires.
