Wide wheels and no arch work doesn't mix I'm afraid! I don't have pics of my old Corsa in my 'garage' anymore but I'm sure one or 2 will pop up on here.

cant understand how your doing this, iv got 6.5j's ET35 up front and the cars only lowered 30mm, my 205/50/15 r888's are practically rubbing, partually down to the weight of the engine but im going to need to do a bit of arch work

ET35 will be the exact reason you can't do that, vauxhall standard are ET49 im sure porsche wheels are something like ET60? so with the spacers will come back to something around ET49 and be similar fitting to vauxhall wheels, at least thats that i remember anyways
