If it had the standard 16" wheels, there might not be anything listed. Since you have an S, it probably came with 17" or 18" wheels since the larger front rotors of the S require at least the 17" wheels.
TeamOxford posted this link for option codes.

I have the number 239, which on this list shows it to be a 18" alloy wheels option and also the number 411, which on this list shows it to be a 18" Carrera wheels option . Just as I suspected and someone swapped these older 911 17" wheels out for them. Grrrr!

Your wheels look like aftermarket Cup I wheels that were popular on the 964 and a direct fit for the Boxster. Decent wheels that are easy to clean but may bend easily if you hit a pothole. (don't ask me how I know)
