The short answer is yes. However, +56 is a pretty high offset for the 986 . I would recommend using spacers up front to lower the offset to at least +47 or so .

Sounds like it's a straight fit. Will do some research as I'm looking for a 19" that fits without any mods. Will research. Thanks Danger.

There's a lot of decent wheels to be had on eBay at reasonable prices . Though, you may have to resort to spacers in order to achieve the proper fitment . There's a lot of us on the forum who can help you with that .

The HRE P40 replica however, if you can find them on eBay, are very close to not being THAT bad tho.... 11kg for the 18x10.

There's no way I'd put this kind of wheel on my car. I don't trust the quality of them at all.
