Need Wheel size and offset Information

Please can anyone tell what the size and offset of these wheels are(for a 911 SC)? I know this is difficult(impossible) to tell by looking at a picture but maybe some knows more about this partucular car or maybe some has a 911 with the same looks. I think they are 18" Fikse LM10's but I need complete wheel size and offset.

Look like Fikse, but 17's, not 18's.

18 inch wheels on the early cars just dont look right IMO - they jump out at me.

I believe wheel enhansement will build you a custom offset set of FM-10's for around $2,800. (no affiliation - just in a wheel hunt myself... between BBS LM's and larger Fuchs.)

Thanks for the responses, I know that many manufacturers will build the wheels with custom offsets but that is exactly why I want to know the offset of this 911 or a 911 with a similar end result. This way I can order the correct set of wheels. I would like the wheels on my car to look like the orange one or this one:
