no they are not "the same" wheels that come on boxters, yes they are similar looking. however those wheels are very heavy coming in at about 22lbs for a 17"

Yes, they look very similar, but aren't the true OEMs. Those are roughly $3,000 when you don't buy them attached to a Porsche. They are heavy, but the upside to that is they are very strong. My personal favorite for looks too. But I wouldn't recommend them for an EJ25 car, they would be noticeably slower. A modded WRX would handle tham well though.

The wheel pictured is the Mille Miglia Cup 3S Sport. It's available in that "smoked" finish or in a plain silver in 17" only. It does weigh 24 lbs., so it's not in the lightweight category, but looks quite nice. It is a replica of the Porsche wheel made by Mille Miglia. They're on sale right now because this fitment is being discontinued.

Sweet! Be sure to post pics asap and make some meets. What size tires did you get? I have 205/50 S-03s on my stock wheels, and I absolutely love them. Good choice.

I never liked those wheels until I saw them on your car, DR EVYL. Those are real nice.
