Default Wheel offset question

I've found a set of BBS one-piece wheels that came from a '83 911SC, will these have the correct offset for my early 944?

should fit fine, IIRC the early 911 offsets are like 20 or 11 or something.

check the inside of the wheel for a number stamped like ET20 or something, thats the offset

ok, here is the info from the inside of the wheel: 224 ET23, also KBA 40674 and 7Jx16H.

Looks like ET23, now to figure out if that is ok...

Its good for all 4 corners? Not an issue in the rear? I thought I was reading that ET11 is better, or is that for wider wheels only?
