Default Anyone running Porsche 997 CARRERA S 19's??

Hi, i'm looking to buy a set of BBS 'claw' style Porsche alloys for my 89GT, the tyre tize is Front tyres 235/35 ZR19 (87y)
Rear tyres 295/30 ZR19 (100y)
the seller does'nt know the offset but says the wheels were taken of a Carrera 2 S and not the wider bodied 4 S. Is anyone running a set of these, any issues fitting? The link is below, Many thanks Rich

I think those are similar in offset to the 19" rims I am running in these pics with 295/30-19 tires... Fit just fine with only slight fender rolling

the tire's are 295 in the rear and 235 up front, they fit fine except for a little rubbing on large bumps, i am getting the fenders rolled at newmans, once i get back home.
