Default will et55 wheels fit rear on 01 boxster s?

I believe the offset is 45 on stock. I am trying to fit a set of 17" wheels and not sure if they will rub the fenders.
here are the part numbers 996 362 128 00 and 996 362 124 00 all four ET55.
any help with actual experience would be appreciated.
tire size if interested is
205-50-17 and 255-40-17 Michelin Pilot Alpin snow tires

thank you

perhaps spacers will be needed to make the rears fit?

OEM 18"X9" are et 52 so I can't see how you would have any problem unless you are going for the "flush" look & may need spacers to achieve "the look".

thanks for the response byprodriver
I had hoped some others would have shared their experience
I think the wheels will fit and worst case need spacers.
thank you again
