Best offset on 993

Hi guys,

I plan to buy new wheels for my 993 new to me narrow body. What is the best offset for 18'' wheels. I have a PSS9 RS rideheight but 16'' cup wheels (OEM). ( PO kept his wheels ) I saw ET 54 and ET 65 for rear 18"x10" wheels and ET46 and ET50 for front wheels. What is the best package to avoid the gap in the fenders.
Here is a pic
Thank you

Your current wheels are
7ET55 & 8ET70 x16

other 993 n/b wheels are
8ET59 & 10ET65 x18 My'02 996 wheels like these


8ET52 & 10ET65 x18 oem Speedlines like these



These are Speedline Alissio 9x18ET50 & 10ET56 x18, just nick the rear fenders at times at lower than Rs height




turbo twists in n/b o/s would be 8ET52 and 10ET65 x18

You mention that you are at PSS9 ride height but it looks higher in the photo. I would check it to confirm. Your PSS9 suspension can be adjusted for height in addition to any wheel change you might make.
