17 x 7.5 Porsche Twist Wheel fitment Question!

I came across a guy today who told me he had set of Porsche Turbo Twist he would like to sell and asked if I knew anyone who was interested. Ironically I have been looking for a set so I went to check them out. He happened to have a shop not far from where we had met so a short drive later I saw these.





All four wheels are 17" x 7.5" and I am just itching to buy them but I have a few questions first.

I know that 17x7 fit up front pretty easily but with 7.5 will I need to run a decent size spacer for the front and rear? If so what size would you reccommend?

Let me break down my current suspension setup:

Stock fenders all around
Maxx Struts *Set at highest setting*
Topline disc brake kit
Stock drum rear brakes
Rear end at stock height

Also is there any gain or loss in track width if I decide to do a 944 brake setup all around? Because I was just going to have my current rotors and drums drilled for the 5x130 bolt pattern.


Also for the price he is asking I can not pass these up!
Thanks in advance!
