Default Wheels from SN95 on S197?

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how much difference there is between wheels that fit the SN95 Stangs and wheels that fit the S197s. I'm looking at a set of used 17x10 CCW race wheels and tires that came off an SN95 and want to know if there will be any issues with putting them on my 07. I autocrossed on a set of 17x9 Cobra R wheels (borrowed from a guy I let co-drive my car) with no problems. I've asked the seller what the offset is but I haven't gotten a response yet. TIA for any help.

they'll work, as long as you don't plan on lowering it, as they'll be a bit outside of the fender wells, at least that's been the case withall of the sn95 wheels I've seen on s197's(looks a little funny too).

That's good to know because it will be lowered soon. I definitely don't want any rubbing issues on the track. What's the offset difference?

I think they are but i dont know for sure. usually when i see wheels advertised they are for 99-04 so the offset might be different

?26mm? negative offset for S94 rims in relation to
the 39-45-50mm negative offset for OEM S197 rims.

I'm not calling you a liar, but I have trouble believing that. Front, sure, that's possible. But I can't see how 24mm rears would not stick out. Mine are as flush as you can get without sticking out and they're 40mm.

Mine are '03 terminators - 18 x 9 with 26mm offset, and they sit flush with the fenders also.
