its been a few years for me, but they sound like they should fit. Are they from another Porsche or are they aftermarket wheels (I ask because I can identify porsche wheels fitting on other porsches better than aftermarket wheels). IIRC, my '00 had 18's.. 7.5" front, 9" rear with offsets that sound like the ones you listed.

The fronts should be no problem at all. I am running 18 x 8.5 et 53 with 255 tires and no rubbing problem.
The rears could be a bit tight - I am running 18 x 9 et 43 with 265 tires and have little or no extra clearance on the outside, but probably 3/8" clearance on the inside. With your et 47 rear you could be OK.
Good luck...

Those are closer to OEM than my track tires, so you're probably OK, but still hard to say. You may need a spacer in the front if you run 245mm or wider tires, and might hit the fenders in the back if you're running 285+.
