Default Can anyone stomach yet another tire fitment question?

Sorry team, I've been trying to digest all the tire info out there for days but I'm still weak. Looking at a spare set of wheels for my 2003 996 C2 which has the Carrera 5 spoke on it right now, 8x18 ET50 and 10x18 ET65. The new (used) wheels are 8x18 ET57 and 10x18 ET58. I believe they are 997 Carrera 3 wheels as shown below. Will be mounting 225/40 and 285/30 tires. Any thoughts on fit? Thanks!

So it will be like running 7mm spacers on the rear and you need 7mm spacers on the front to equal what you have now.

They will fit but would definitely need front spacers.
