Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Scored an amazing deal today. Purchased a set of 07 Cayman 18's with original tires for $400 bucks. A good day for me. This weekend I will determine what if any spacer that I may need.
My great buy today.
My Boxster S.
Congratulations! I recently bought the same wheels (also with tires) for considerably more. I installed them on my 2000 base 986 with no spacers needed. I was also able to sell my old 17" wheels and tires which helped recoup some of the expense.
I occasionally check craigslist for Boxster parts. I hit just at the right time. Got them from a guy in Daytona...a 50 mile drive from Orlando. It pays to check ebay, cl, and the forums. Deals are available, usually these guys just want them out of their way.
I have them too. My fronts came with 235s and the right one rubbed on the bottom of my strut perch. I haven't heard of this before, so maybe my pass side strut perch is lower for some reason. I went down to 225 which doesn't rub - I assume the diameter is slightly less - just enough to avoid having the inside 3/4 inch from rubbing up on the perch.
Nice wheels! I actually like the look of your oem BBS-SDII wheels better, but these are a close second and, I suspect, lighter. Do you by any chance have comparative weights available that you could share?
And what will you be doing with those lovely wheels you're taking off? I doubt you need them for snow tires.... I'd be glad to get them them out of your way. Does $400 sound about right?
