Not vastly no.
Chassis is the same, as with the Scirocco the bodywork may be different.

Porsche 3piece split rims, fronts are 18" 8.5 et52 & rears are 9.5 et49, I'm guessing due to needing spacers these would poke a bit on the rear ? If so would swapping the centre make them easier to get on ?

15-18mm adaptor up front with 205/40 or 215/35 and rolled arches you will be fine
Rears 15-18mm adaptor you will be fine as well with camber and 225/40 tyres.
