Are newer Porsches the same lug pattern as the old porsche 5 lug? What I am getting at is, will new porsche wheels fit on a flared 914 with a 5 lug conversion? Would the offset be a problem? Would the 17 or 16 inch wheels rub?

Same bolt pattern.
The 'newer' wheels have a higher offset, meaning they stick in further. Spacers are needed to clear the strut/rear inner wheel well.

Should fit flares fine with spacers.

You'll probably want to keep the diameter under the stock 25.5"
