Default Another wheel/tire fitment Question 87 944s

Have been restoring my car now for a couple months. Someone offered me a very good deal on a set of wheels/tires...I spent as couple hours searching, but could not find anyone talking about this exact fitment. I have an 87 944s late offset.

Wheels are Turbo Twist Replicas with Pirelli Winter tires.

225/40-18 on 18x8 front +50
265/35-18 on 18x10 rear +55

Anyone know if these will fit?

On the inside of the wheels should be some numbers, like this

993.362.138.01 - fitted with 255/35/18 - 9 inch wide ET 52 13.2Kg (Turbo Twist Equiv is 10.2Kg)

993.362.134.06 - fitted with 235/40/18 - 7.5 inch wide ET50 11.3Kg (Turbo Twist equiv is 8.6Kg)

These fit on my 1988 TurboS, no problem

The tire sizes are not a good indicator, you should check the part number

There's a reference list on another site 944racing.de .. a whole page or so of part numbers to wheels size and also WEIGHT .. mine look like Turbo Twists but are very heavy, real Turbo Twists have hollow spokes and weigh
