Will these wheels fit?

Wil these wheels fit an 87 Turbo? 18x11 et19 and 18x8.5 et25. If not, what are the best offsets for 11s and 9/8.5?
Thanks

Rears ET 19 = 4.75 inches outer, 6.25 inches inner. Fronts ET 25 = 3.25 inches outer, 5.25 inches inner. If my calculations are right that is tight to the rear fenders, & about right on the fronts. I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

YES they will fit just fine.

For reference, I run a 9" wheel up front with a +30 et and -1 degree camber on a 255 tire. I don't have any issues with rubbing but I have rolled my fenders.

On the rear, I have two sets of 11" wheels that are a -5 et and a 315 tire without any clearance issues. I also have a 11.5" wheel with a 0 et and a 315 that clears without any issues.

So in short - YES - those specs are just fine. You can get more aggressive if you want.

Chris.
