Will rims with an ET of 35 fit on a car with ET52?

I'm lookin' for winter wheels for my 944 S2.
Now I found a set of very nice Cup 1 wheels, but they are (all 4) 7.5J and ET35, while the S2 has ET52...
Will those wheels fit?

.
No personal experience but :
- they will 'stick out' more - so, depending on tyre size, may rub on the wheelarches at full lock ...

Are you going with narrower than stock tyres? What’s the width of the stock rims.
2cm extra offset (at centre of tyre) could be countered by a narrower tyre. A narrower rim may make a slight difference but mostly it’s about the tyre.
At the front, changing the offset can mess with the “scrub radius” so google that for info.
Maybe check what the oem winter wheels & tyres options were back then? (Listed in PET)

What are 7.5 ET35 Cup 1s off?
It's not a 964 or a 928, so if not a 944 then what?

I think ET35 Cup1s are aftermarket, that is, the 2-3 sets I've seen previously have been.
