     These are Porsche wheels,can they be fitted and is 10J to wide for the rear?

    8.5J ET52 FRONT + 10J ET47, ET55 or ET65 REAR. 18inch TURBO ALLOYS.

    Many thanks,

    Adam

    definitely 'do-able' with those offsets - stretched tyres would be a must, especially at the rear though

    We need to do some calculations

    no it'd look ace, I take it you can choose the rear offset '10J ET47, ET55 or ET65 REAR'

    front = ET52, plus 20mm adaptor = final ET32

    or with a 25mm adaptor to make the final ET27

    rear = ET55, plus 20mm adaptor = final ET35

    You'd need a 215/40/18 tyre up front at a guess, and at least a 235 width rear tyre

    I'll try to find pics of someone who's done it before, someone's bound to have
