Default Do you think these wheels will fit?

I´m looking at a set of wheels with the size 20x9 ET45 and 20x12 ET45. Tires would be 245x30x20 and 325x25x20. Do you think they wil fit , or will the poke outside the body?
997.1 TT
They come in 9" only front, but rear I can choose 11,5" ET45 instead,

I did som measurments on my own in the garage, held a level completly vertical against the fender then measured from the rim. The Front was ~13mm in and the Rear was ~20mm in.

And according to Willtheyfit.com the 9x20 ET45 will poke out ~4mm ... The rear 11,5x20 works. Anyone with similiar wheels and offset can confirm ?

Is your car lowered? Do you have stock wheels on now?

I have tried to figure out the same thing, i.e. how much wider can you go than stock before you start to rub against the fenders. Wasn't sure if just measuring the distance would give me the answer or if I somehow have to take into account turning, under load etc.

Yes my car have the original 997.1 Turbo-wheels, and is not lowered. But have the H&R lowering springsin the garage that will be installed with new wheels.

They are on the more agresssive side. If you are lowered you may rub up front.

I run:

Style: HRE 590RS CL’s
Sizes and Offsets: 9x20 et. 53mm & 12x20 et. 48mm

no issues with rubbing what so ever but I’m not lowered & still running stock suspension.
