I hear ya...beat up OEMs that are not bent and true will run you about $1400...plus refinsihing another $400-600 for the set...plus tires....===$$$
You may need to ditch the wife...LOL

GT3 wheels 18 x 8/11, offset 50 FRONT 45 rear?

Im currently running 18 X 7.5 50 offset and 18 X10 65 offset rear. With 15mm spacers front and rear.

Do I need spacers??

Did a search couldnt find any info.

Thoses are definitely a Turbo/C4S fitting. If you can get them with a bigger offset in the rear, they will work. You will need a 65mm+ rear offset. For example, stock 997 Carrera S wheels (19x8/19x11) will fit fine as the rear wheels have a 67mm offset.
