Hello fellow enthusiasts,

I have just recently purchased some new 18” rims for my 2004 Boxster, this was titled as genuine but somehow I am suspicious.

Anyone out there have knowledge of OEM wheels or replicas as there are forums out there saying made from Germany, this one is made in Cz. Although looks clean and beautiful, I’m leaning towards that this may be a replica.

Any info on what the manufacturer or what the mag wheel is called (cup 1)? Would be greatly appreciated.

They made a lot of different wheels, I’d be more worried about the amount of weight on the one

The last photo has a Porsche part number and the Porsche part triangle... I would suggest that they are Porsche wheels, which doesn't mean Porsche made them... there are lots of parts that are sourced from other manufacturers.

Thanks for the update. Yes, I've just visited my mechanic, someone that has worked and tracked Porsche most of his career, he can confirm what you stated as well.

Thanks for the input and I appreciate the heads up. The weights should be removed and reset when doing the wheel fitment and balancing in the workshop.
