All depends on the brand. There are very few 17" aftermarket Porsche wheels, but tons for other makes like BMW, Subaru, Ford. A bit sad as I think 17's look better on the boxster and smaller lighter wheels are definitely a good thing. Lots of tires available in 17" that would fit this car.

H&R makes adapters that are a spacer with conversions that let you run other bolt patterns:

I don't know if I would run them for track as I am not sure how much weight they add etc... but if there was a set of wheels in the alternate bolt pattern you wanted to run, thi might be a way. Although for $400 for the adapters, that is a big chunk of a budget wheel set budget... But could be a way to really be unique?
