The sizes I mentioned may not be OEM fitment to a 986, but by that logic you shouldn't use wheels from a 987 either.
As long as the wheels are hub centric (i.e. 71.6 center bore - which 986/987 wheels both are), then they're perfectly interchangeable . However, one has to carefully calculate how the difference in width and offset will effect the overall fitment between the two .
In the past, I've gone on record several times indicating that 10 inch wheel is about the widest that will properly fit on a 986 boxster .
