So guys, I just found out another piece of information on this wheel/tire combo. I originally thought the fronts were a 8x18 47mm offset. Now I found out they are actually a 8x18 57mm offset. Do you guys think I'll need to run a 5mm spacer if I use them with the 235/40/18s? I'm pretty comfortable with the rears, but am just wondering about the fronts. I don't mind getting the spacer, but then I need to get 5mm longer lug bolts and porsche is even recommending a new longer set of wheel locks. I would prefer to keep my existing locks if possible.
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Thanks again.
Norbert

You won't have a clearance problem. So the 5mm spacers could be used if you want to push the fronts out to fill the fender gap a little more. I didn't bother.
