To follow up: I bought a set of adjustable toe arms from a UK webshop, they did the trick perfectly and now I have about the amount of camber I wanted (-2.0) as well as toe-in (0.10 total) in the...

Any guesses if the 19x11" wheel would fit into a 986 bodied boxster as well? I have somehow understood that 10.5" wide with 285mm tire is about the maximum...
