I have a '88 951 and your wheels will work. With your setup you can run 245/40-18 fronts and 295/30-18 rears with no problem. I currently run 8.5x18 ET52 with 255/35-18 and 10x18 ET65 with 295/30-18, with plenty of clearance. My car is also lowered by 1.5".

One issue you may have is clearing the front wheel bearing dust caps. Some later Porsche wheels are not configured to clear them. I went with 7 mm spacers machined to fit over them.
