Porsche supplies a wheel hanger stud to make it easy to dismount and mount our wheels. I bought these because I feel it’s better using two instead of one.
The forward facing wheel liner needs to be removed. An easy task using a 10mm socket on the two plastic...

How to keep your 987 Boxster Convertible Top from doing this...a repair option.
The problem really is pretty simple to fix. You just have to dig a little under the head liner for the attachment points of two elastic straps that have perished, or need adjusting.
