Because the wheel rims are non standard (Miro), I don't know their dimensions or what tyres will fit correctly. On a Boxster, the rear wheels are wider than the front.
If I were you, I would go to a REPUTABLE tyre supply shop and ask their opinion on what size & type of tyres will fit the rims.
As for the tyres themselves, don't be tempted by installing cheap ones - go for a good manufacturer like Mitchelin, Conti, Bridgestone etc. A good tyre shop will guide you the in the right direction.
You won't regret buying 4 good quality tyres, your Boxster deserves them.....
