Default Wheel fitment question?

Will these wheels fit a 993 NB car? will spacers be needed?
Sorry, I have to plead ignorance on how proper wheel fitment is derived.
Thanks is advance!
Specs:
18x8.5 +45, 18 lbs
18x10 +40, 19.5 lbs
5x130
Hubcentric to Porsche
Use OEM lug bolts.

The rear wheels are better suited for a widebody fitment and won't work on your NB 993. Ideally, you're looking for something in the neighborhood of +65 for a rear offset.

Just for reference, here's a link to a handy wheel offset calculator posted on Rennlist: https://rennlist.com/forums/tire_rim_calculator.php
