Need wheel help

Hi there, I have a 2003 986 Boxster. It has the 17" hem wheels but I would like to put the turbo twist's on as that is what my last Boxster had.
Question, would 245 40 18 front and 285 35 18 rear Twist wheels fit?

Not on the stock twists, no.

You posted tire sizes, not wheel size with offset

Will 18" fit on an 2003 986, yes.

285 is pretty wide for a 986 without fender flares

265 / 235 is a good setup
