Just swapping the tires from left to right and vice-versa is what the article is talking about, effectively turning the pattern backwards. But I think Red is suggesting remounting the tires from left to right, which would keep the direction the same. I don't think there should be a problem doing what Red is suggesting. I had a set of Cont DWs (lower S) on my 07 CS and the fronts cupped. The Porsche dealer remounted and swapped them from side to side.

Do you track you Boxster? If not, you must have a funky alignment. I wore the outsides of my PSSs on my CSS, but that was due to 12 DE days. I may go to a track alignment during the summer and a normal alignment during the winter to help the next set of tires I buy in the spring. I was getting ready to do what Red is suggesting with the current fronts, but went 1 too many DEs and chunked the side of my left tire. I currently have my snows on, so don't freak out.
