Another wheel/tire fitment question....95 993

Happy Thanksgiving lads!
I've tried to find the answer by searching to no avail. I know there are wheel experts here that can pop off the answer in 30 seconds so here it is...will a rim that is 18x11 et55 fit the rear of my 95 993nb with a tire 265/35/18 ? She's got H&R sport springs but doesn't sit too low.
I have found a set of wheels I like but my tires are new. Not trying to invest that heavy. But I'm not too fond of the ol' twists she came with either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers ,
Dave

No way
1) the tire is too small for the wheel, 265/35 should be used only on 9-10.5" wheels
2) the wheel stick out 22.7mm further than it should to fit in a n/b 993 rear wheel well
