Boxster S wheels on a 996?

Does anybody know if Boxster S wheels will fit/look ok on a 996 C2? The rims were supposedly stock 18" rims from a 2000 boxster S.

Not to mention they are an inch narrower as well.

I run Boxster S 18" 5 spokes as street rollers. They fit fine. Now it is tucked into the wheelwell but I don't care as long as it gets me to the track.

7.5" 5xet and 9" 52et.
