Will 997 C2S wheels fit on 996 C2?

I assume these should bolt right on but wanted to double check before I went ahead and did this.

Thanks!

Lobster Claw 19''

So i just looked at the wheels and on the inside they have a stamp - 8 57 and 11 51

Can anyone explain this? Does this mean 8'' wide w/ et57 and 11'' w/ et51?

I thought the Lobster had front et57 and rear et67??

Im confused here.....

So which car are the 8'' wide w/ et57 and 11'' w/ et51 made for?

I know they came off of a 997 and Im almost 100% positive they came off a C2S.

Could they be off of another car perhaps??
