Probably not going to fit. Check this offset calculator to compare them with your stock wheels

Here is another site that rents a tool to roll the fenders to make for more clearance.

Another critical factor is going to be the size of the tires that you run on a set of wheels.

You don't wnat to make a mistake and buy a set of wheels that don't fit and rub on the fenders. I know because I did.

i'm pretty sure 997 wide body rims wont fit on a narrow body car, its certainly the case for 996tt rims and being that 997 wide body rims fit 996 wide bodies perfectly i would think that 997 rims wont fit narrow bodies either
