I think front will fit. Rear will not. You need ~et46 rear or about that

First off, these wheels are spectacular, best of luck with sale.
Fittment will be an issue, unless you change some barrels, IMHO.
If you have an RSR, or GT2 bodied car, I believe these would fit...but not on a stock bodied 993 WB. I just did the math on these wheels versus the Tramont's I had built for my 993 C4S.
My fronts are 8.5 et 42, compared to 10" et 31...that's 30mm more poke
My rears are 11" et 38, compared to 12" et 18..that's 33mm more poke.
The rear's are tight on my car, no room left, some room still up front...but not over 1".
As a disclaimer, what I ordered offset wise...and what actually were built did vary slightly at the rear anyway.
Just my opinion on fittment naturally, someone feel free to prove me wrong with pictures.
Bump for a spectacular set of wheels.

Thanks for clear explanation Magdaddy.
You are absolutely right. There will be a need to re-barrel the fronts for a correct fitment on a stock widebody cars. The rears however should be able to fit a stock 993 C4S, 993 Turbo, etc.
Thanks for looking guys.
Hell, I might just buy them for myself and rebuild the barrel to fit my car
It's such a great deal for a E88 set.

Not all BBS E88 centers are the same. There is a number on it which can match with inner and outer barrels combos to give proper offsets. I have been messing around with a set for a few years to get the correct fitment
