Cups 1's from a 3.2 to 964?

Hi all

I have a set of 17" cups (7.5 and 9") that fit straight onto my 1987 3.2.

Will these fit a 964 by chance?

Or is the offset wrong?

Cheers
James

My 1987 Carrera is a keeper.

Anyone can 'drive' a 996.
Not everyone can 'drive' a (can I say classic?) 911.

However a 996GT3RS I would turn for....until I lost my license.
