Default Another wheel fitment question

I have a 2010 C2S with 19" Turbo wheels which I don't like. I really like the 991 Carrera S wheels, but I don't think they'll fit. My current fronts are 19X8.5 with 56mm offset, and the rears are 19X11 with a 51mm offset. The 991 wheels are 20X8.5 with a 51 offset, so far so good, but the rears are 20X11 and a 70mm offset. I can't see how that would work, but has anyone tried it?

Run a spacer.

Wouldn’t a spacer increase the offset?

A 20mm spacer would bring it from +70 to +50.

Punch all the measurements into www.willtheyfit.com and it will show you a comparison.

If you want even stronger and lighter wheels than either OEM offering, I have a set of forged Champion RS171s for sale in The Marketplace with a custom polished finish in a NB fitment.

run a 20mm spacer at the back - your fronts wont need a spacer and will be pretty flush - make sure you get the thinner profile tires so your overall diameter of the wheel doesnt change too much.
