I don't think you have given enough information, offset and bolt circle are critical.

Actually the EI shown above is supposed to be ET and that is the backspace of the wheel ET 62 on the 8's and ET 36 on the 9's I'm not sure if they will fit a 911.

Porsche bolt pattern (bolt circle) is 5 X 130, if the wheels are not that dimension and have been redrilled I would not buy them. You need to know the backspace and whether you would need spacers or wheel adapters. Did this person have them on a 911 before?

I have seen people selling these after they have been redrilled with different size bolt circle and I wouldn't touch those.

Those wheels may be for a much later model Porsche. You would need some very thick spacers to make those offsets fit on an SC. I would pass on them if I were you.

As I said above, not without really thick spacers, no. Front spacers would need to be about 40mm thick, and you might still need to roll the fenders to keep them from rubbing.

To make some order and help me and other members of the forum, what's kind of bbs or other companies are suitable for normal sc without wide body,
With spacers , adapters or without?
Where can we buy spacers and adaptors ?
Links and photos are be welcome .
And friends here made rims upgrade are welcome to give tips with images
Do eny body know about other car models , for exemple vw that have the same offset and bolt circle ?
Thanks
Tom
