Maybe, but then you'd be out an additional $865 and you'd be stuck with Sport Techno wheels (yuk)...JMO, TEHO 
Seriously though, I come by my user name honestly (I'm a journeyman Tool & Die Maker who once spent 11 years as a final inspector for an O.E.M.)...and I find the fact that you guys can actually see enough of a difference in a measly 5mm offset to make you want to spend $490 to "correct" the "mistake" absolutely amazing...

I just took my OEM 5mm spacers with extended lugs and wheel locks of my 991 since I turned it in off lease (purchased from Suncoast). I'll be putting them in the marketplace along with clear markers and a set of black mats this weekend.

I haven't experienced any excessive road rash in the obvious areas - but I also have 3M film on the wheel wells behind the wheels.
I have SPASM so the lowered car with the wheels filling out the wheel wells looks amazing!

I went aggressive with my spacers and used 12mm on the front and 15mm on the rear with the Sport Techno's and 305 tires on the rear on my C2S.
I am also on SPASM. So for no issues with rubbing or excessive dirt and the car looks awesome. I will post pics when I get a chance.

25.4mm divided by 2 is 12.7m. So a .5" wider wheel would work out to a 6.35mm spacer front & back😀, technically speaking! And the ST rear offset (WB) is 48 instead of 52 so it actually sticks out 10.35mm wider in the back! And for the guy above who Yucked the Sport Techno wheels, you are right: TEHO!

Installed 7's & 15's on the 50th and it now looks beefy. No need to purchase the $$$ Porsche units. Do make sure you order the black or silver extended lug bolts depending on what your after. Go here to save a bunch. Post 108. T https://rennlist.com/forums/991/842093-g-g-6.html
