Definitely, the rear 18 inch wheels are 9 inches wide I believe and the offset is virtually all to the inside of the rim!

I contacted the Porsche dealer it came from, and they are the original OEM wheels, which is good news. Obviously OEM wheels don't always have letters near the valve.

The bad news is that I'm going to have to be even more careful about the road from now on.
