Default Boxster/Cayman 19" wheels

Hi everyone, I searched and couldn't find an answer to my question. Before I go and try to fit myself, does anyone know if the stock 19" 981 cayman 5 spoke wheels fit over 981 Boxster Spyder brakes? want to be sure they clear the brake calipers without issue as I have a set of 19" wheels with some track tires in the basement from my Boxster I'd like to utilize on my Spyder.

I know I can test fit myself, hoping someone here can confirm for me before I go through all the effort. If they don't fit I'll put them up for sale but I have a gentle track event in a few weeks so it would be great understand if these are an option for me.

Thanks in advance!

I needed H+R 7mm front spacers for brake clearance (and 14mm on the rear) for the 19s on the GT4 19, boxsters iii brilliant chrome
Front: 8 J x 19 ET 57
Rear: 9.5 J x 19 ET 45

/\ love seeing the GT4 out in the winter wilderness! At least I know they can fit, the GT4 suspension and brakes are different so I'm thinking i'd only need small spacers if anything.

Yes with smaller brakes 5mm would push the wheels out towards the fender more to match the stock lock, but probably not necessary for caliper clearance (was within 1mm of scraping the barrel on the GT4 without spacers)
