bldn10 is infamous around these parts
Looks like 255-35-18s on 18x9 would be the right setup, depending on offset. On the front now I have 235-35s on 19x8.5s w/ 5mm spacer. What is the stock offset BTW?

Great! That GT3 front end definitely makes the car more aggressive. Enjoy!

Just for the record for us newbie... since the Boxster and the Cayman are built on the same chassis (right?), does that mean the body is the same in respect to wheel housings?

Anotherwards, whatever wheel combo fits the Cayman, will the boxster have the same spacing?

Thanks,

Mark

Hey Fluid, wow your cayman looks great, very nice work with the wheels and spoiler, it looks aggressive and mean. Make sure to check out Fabspeed for any other performance upgrades you may need. We have our new Competition Air Intake which makes a significant HP increase and better sound. We also have our Sport Headers with Sport Cats for more HP and TQ increase, in addition to a little more aggressive sound. Feel free to PM me if you or anyone has any questions.
Thanks

I have your catless headers and they have made a significant difference in my cars performance .. as you see I have some turbo styled side vents that already increase the direct air flow into the sides of the car ..my own secret design and its working really well ..

I can't tell from your avatar, obviously you can't "ram" air into a fuel injected car so I was trying to figure out what the vents are for.
