Default Wheel sizes for 987.2 boxster (spyder)

I'm looking at having some wheels made for my 2012 Spyder, and am wondering what the slightly more aggressive fitment would be.

In most cases you can go 1/2" wider, and a slightly more aggressive offset, but I'm unfamiliar with what can be safely done on this car.

I will not be lowering it, and do not want to use spacers. These wheels will be machined custom, so I can make them fit perfectly.

Thanks for the help.

Let me re ask this question:

With stock sizes being :
F 19x8.5 et55
R 19x10 et43

Will the following fit?
19x8.5 et50
19x10 et 38

How about

19x9
19x10.5?
