Default Wheel fitment question

Would the 18" set of ssr 3pc rims with these specs fit on my 1988 951 without any mods like rolling the fenders, or strut clearance issues?

I read all of the no-no's porsche sent out changing to 17"-18" rims bulletin, but this is a weekend/nice weather car, no DE/track car , so it doesn't bother me 1 bit.

Specs:
Wheel Size(s) Front: 18x8.5 Rear: 18x10
Offset 42
Center Bore 71.6

Thanks in advance..Phil.

Those are probably going to stick out too much, especially if you are lowered. I ran the same size wheels with ET52 front and ET47 rear and those were pretty close, especially in the rear. You could probably get away with more offset in the front, but I don't know about 10mm. With the right suspension and some camber (plus probably rolled fenders) they might fit if you use a small enough tire.


225 front, 265 rear
