Victor wheels on a Boxster

[Perrytbiii]

I have recently run into an issue with a set of Victor Innsbruck wheels. They are the recommended size to run 18 x 10 with a 50 MM offset. When test fitting them they hit the shock tower on the back. The spacing is minimal but will still need a spacer to make them work. My question to the board is has anyone else been over this bridge? The Advice from TSW/ Victor was, "for me to change my style of wheel". I am looking for friendly information before flaming TSW and Victor for crappy advertising and misleading information.

Thanks
