    They are 18x8.5's with 215/40 up front (front fenders are not rolled) and 225/40 out back. Front 20mm adapter and rear 25mm adapter.

    Weird. What's the offset? I would expect them to be poking out with that big of spacers.

    Oh gotcha. All Porsche wheels seem to have huge offsets. Good job and good choice of spacers.

    So the wheels are not staggered, but the tires are?

    Looks good either way.
