the wheels aren't likely to fit.. porsche to vw adapters run at around 200 quid..
you'll also have to be wary of the real wheel width..

since porsches are rear engined the rear wheels are often wider so the power direct from the wheels is spread over a wider area and doesnt tear the road up.. you cant have wheels that stick out from the arches by law..

Used to have a '97 MK3 16v GTI 3dr in 'Black Magic'... now have a '55 Civic Type-S...
