I'm going to try and put the wheels on this weekend. Hopefully I won't run into any issues.

Another question. If I wanted to have the wheels flush with the fender, what size spacers would be recommended? And where is the best place to pick up spacers?
The front offset at +57 is way high for a 986 boxster. You may in fact run into a clearance problem with the strut. Therefore, I would recommend bringing the offset down to at least +45, or more, if you're looking for an aggressive stance. As far as the rears are concerned, as Deserion indicated, the 35mm aspect ratio at a minimum will altered the speedometer calibration. That aside, if you're looking for a more aggressive fitment on the rear, you could easily lower the offset to +40 without any issues.
