When wheels stick too far out, you roll the inner edge of the fender to create more clearance. But a GT3 wheel will be too wide regardless if you roll the fender. Looks like your friend has put a too narrow tire on the rear so the sidewall folds over. Not a good practice unless you have a garage queen that you trailer everywhere. You need all the sidewall provided to corner properly.

I still vote no. Those wheels were not meant to be used on a 986.
