I think these wheels were made specifically for 928s.... Not sure of any offset discrepancy. Anybody else know anything about the Stosek wheel offsets?

OZ who actually made these for Strosek had same problem as all other aftermarket wheel makers. 928 requires so large ET that its virtually impossible to achieve without stupid looking outer rim which almost turns back inwards. Such outer rims do exist but wheels would look stupid using them. Thus 50-52mm is about max ET these wheels can have. AFAIK 50mm is correct ET for these wheels even though its not correct for 928.

Could it be that these are designed for the wider Strosek front fenders only?
What would the different ET do to the car's handling and steering feel/effort? Would you get more tramlining?

No, they were sold for lighter modified stock fender cars also. Not best possible match but many other aftermarket wheels are similar. For example 928 specific BBS RS was someting like 8x16 ET52 IIRR back in the day. Exact same problem with outer rim in them also.

Derporsche is Greg Schickle and it would be an understatement to say Greg has been into 928's longer than 90% of people reading this. The wheels were made for the 928.
