i spoke with john at CCW.
they will physically fit, but you have narrower track at rear (front is identical).
john can make you spacers for the rear which will get you back to OEM track. IIRC, the spacer so needed is 17mm. then you either need to run studs or longer wheel bolts.

Porsche has two sets of OEM spacers for the 997, the 5mm and the 17mm. The 17mm spacer uses the stock lug bolts to attach the spacer to the hub, and it has studs on the spacer and lug nuts. Porsche has been using the 17mm spacer to offer wheels from the narrow body cars on the wide body cars.
The 17mm Porsche spacer is perfect for this 7GT3 => 7Turbo, 7RS, 7GT2 applications.
There is a weight penalty for using this type of spacers, but it is not significant compared to the weight saved by running PCCB or lighter wheels.

Mike,
I am taking the easy way out that day. There is an event at Moroso (Palm Beach International Raceway) which is much closer for me and if the weather is nice I plan to drive there.

Norman, I can tell by looking at those wheels that you have made a terrible mistake and they won't fit your car. You will probably just have to give them to me. That is what friends are for......I will take them off your hands
