I am looking at a set of 18" Carrera Sport Design for my 02 Boxster S. 10" rears and 7.5 front. Do you know which spacer and do you sell them? Do I need longer lug bolts front and rear? I currently have the 17" Twist with 55 offset front and 50 rear if that matters.

As far as I know, there are no spacers that will allow 996 wheels to fit the Boxster - they are just too wide. I suppose that you can change the wheel offset by machining the wheel, but I would not recommend that, as it would probably compromise the safety of the wheel. There are plenty of properly-sized Boxster wheels out there - I would look for the ones manufactured specifically for the Boxster.
