those will definitely fit, you can go more aggressive on the rear if you'd like to add spacers.
I had 43mm on my front, which is the same as the turbo, and i've gone to 49mm with an 11in rear, 305 tire.

maybe i had a "senior moment" but i thought they were talking about 43 & 46 offsets? i guess with spacers, it's not an issue.

The wheels I referenced earlier are these - http://www.pes-tuning.com/GP7_wheel_pics.htm

There are a couple of folks here who run these on TT's without spacers and they look great.

spacers will bring the offset even lower.
yeah the stock offsets are a bit more but who wants the stock offsets when you can get much more aggressive ones...
