I have Boxster 16"
front 6" 50ET 205 55 series
rear 7" 40ET 225 50 series
These fit nicely under stock guards

I think you will find you will need spacers to fit 17" twists (mmmm... and thats a no go for Mr Rego)
Futue te ipsum!!!

2 bolt front end should get away with no spacers if 205/40 are used
