Not to debate that the 97/early 98 isn't weaker than a late 98/99, but I've seen lots of 97 spec boxsters get the living tar beat out of them and the only thing that really breaks on them is the rear subframe. That usually happens when they hit a curb sideways or do some offroading. I'd drive with 19's on a 97 if my boxster was a 97. The reason I wouldn't run 19s is because they weigh a ton and really hurt performance.
