8J/18, 52 offset front and a 996.1 C2 cab

Thanks! I found this on PH which might help with these queries in future:
The specification for 996 wheels are:
(Summer tyres)
Front = 8J x 18H2 - 50/52mm offset
Rear = 10J x 18H2 - 65mm offset
- or -
(Winter tyres)
Front = 8J x 18H2 - 50/52mm offset (or 7.5J x 18H2 - 50mm)
Rear = 10J x 18H2 - 65mm offset
The 996 was never tested or designed for 19" wheels. 18" is the biggest wheel that Porsche provided.
Wheel options (all 18", ie. 18H2)
Carrera wheels = 8J 50 / 10J 65
Turbo Look II = 8J 50 / 10J 65
Sport Design = 8J 52 / 10J 65 (these are the GT3 wheels)
SportTechno = 8J 50 / 11J 63
Carrera, Turbo II and SportDesign wheels are approved fitment for Carrera 2/4 + Targa only (ie. not wide bodied 996) and are compatible with 5mm spacers (part 000.044.500.09)
You get 4*5mm spacers in this part pack and they come with longer bolts (and locking wheel nut).
GT3 and SportTechno are also approved for the narrow-bodied 996, but not with the 5mm spacer option.
