I would consider OEM wheels with OEM spacers and I realize Porsche makes some pretty big spacers. On BMWs I used spacers and had problems with wheel vibrations. I've heard BMWs are more sensitive to wheel vibrations. You definitely increase the chance of vibrations with spacers. If I were buying new wheels, I definitely wouldn't settle for a set that didn't fit without spacers.
