I did some research.

Techart makes the daytona wheel in 10.5" with 42mm offset. That gives a frontspace of 3.6"

The factory turbo II wheel is 11" with 45mm offset. That gives a frontspace of 3.73"

So if you tried a set of the turbo II's you would have an extra .13" (3.3mm) of frontspace.

I think that even the techarts at 10.5" have too much frontspace. I would love to put a set of the 11" turbo II wheels out back but it will look like a matchbox toy. see pic
