Running 5mm Spacers Front and 17mm Rear

So I've decided to go back with OEM wheels on my 997.1

Since I liked the DesignTEK spacers 7mm front and 15mm Rear on the OZ Ultraleggera 19". I want to see how OEM wheels look with the below setup:-

I'm going back with OEM options, so would the 5mm OEM front spacers with GT lugs in the front and 17mm OEM Spacers OEM lug nets in th rear work?

I know porsche went with the 17mm on the 996 Turbo but those seem to fit fine on our cars, they also work with OEM length lugs rather than long lugs.

Anyone have done that before? I'm still awaiting the parts from Germany...

I have FVD spacers...I believe they are 5mm front and 15mm rear. They did come with longer bolts. Looks much better than stock.
