Post Will 2003 TT Rims/Tires fit on my 80 with widebody conversion?

Hi...having factory OEM wide body installed on my 1980 911 targa. Obviously rims/tires are in order. Will a pair of turbo rims off a 2003 TT fit?

Tire sizes are:
front: 225-40zr18
rear:295-30zr18

Thanks in advance!

This particular car looks quite unattractive to me. I think original or period wheels are much better suited.

The offsets are different, you'll need some very aggressive spacers to make them work.
