here are some pics of my new ruger classic rims. they look very nice and catch a lot of attention everywhere but i haven't had enough time to test them out on the road much yet since i just had them put on recently. Let me know what u guys think. i notice the rims stick out from the tires a few milimeters not sure if they fit perfectly or do they need adjustments?

I went with the 19 OZ HLT Formula (on my boxster) - very happy looks great - no real performance penalty from the stock 18'

Congrats! I have the exact same car, color, and wheels. After owning the car for a few years, I've decided to look for a set of new wheels but given how good these wheels are and the cost of getting a new sets, I've decided to have them painted in gloss black with machine lip like the ones in the links below. It looks awesome! Good luck with your decision!
