Can you post a picture of your wheels powdercoated?, I want to do that on mine but not absolutely sure

I was watching these wheels on ebay because they are similar to the ones that the boxster spyder has but I do not if you can fit 19 inch wheels in a 97 boxster, has anybody done that? right now I have OEM 17's, I heard that if you get a bigger rim with thinner tires you get a lot of vibration and discomfort, is that right?
