I'm really fixated on these 18" Boxster wheels. (Let's not focus on the 18" right now - I know everyone will have an opinion)

Will they fit on a 911 5 lug used for 914 5 lug conversion?

They are the 2005 Boxster S wheels.

They'll fit but you will need flared fenders in the rear and probably needs spacers all around - but they are the same bolt pattern 5x130

Thanks - That's exactly what I was looking for. 5 x 130

I run 7X16 boxster rims all around with no spacers and it is as tight as you'd want in the rear (I did not have to roll my fenders at all). The 9" wide boxster rims in the back will not fit standard fenders...the fenders will have to be stretched or flares added (with spacers).

Turtlegirl. Built by Series9. Stock fenders. 16x7 I believe.

What size are those? They look pretty big like 18s maybe? I do like those but I'm really stuck on the other ones I like but could change my mind becasue I'm not finding them for sale and when I do they want like $2000 for them.

I do like this style too. I've seen them. I think these came on the non "S" Boxster. They're kinda like the ones I want.
