Will these wheels fit?

Will these wheels fit on a 83 944!

I have a set of near mint, OEM Porsche turbo twist 18" chrome wheels and tires for sale (2 front and 2 rear). The wheels are in outstanding condition; perfectly straight, true and balanced. The wheels have never been involved with any accidents or repair work and remain in great original condition, There are a couple of small scuffs one wheel which is hardly discernable. Again, the quality and finish of these wheels is remarkable and I have used the “supersize” picture option to demonstrate this. The wheels are wrapped with high-performance, ZR speed rated Michellin Pilots (rear) and Aurora (front) tires with 90% tread remaining on the tires. These wheels came of my 2001 Porsche 996 Turbo as I have upgraded to 19" wheels. COLORED PORSCHE CREST CENTER PIECE IS INCLUDED.



Front: 8JX18, Tire size: 245/40ZR18.



Rear: 11JX18, Tire size: 295/30ZR18.

make sure you get the offset. Later Porsches have a larger offset wheels to accomodate ABS brakes. If you put later offset wheels on your car, the tires will be closer to the center of the car and will look funny. I beleive you can still use the later offset wheels but you will need spacers.

I'm not saying that the wheels you are looking at are the later offset, but you should check.
