Default rs turbo alloys on to cossie

i have a set of 7"x17" OZ chrono evo alloys on my rs turbo,
it's off the road till next year and i was wondering,
can i fit the alloys from the rst on to the cossie.
i've heard the offsets are different, but i have no idea if this is true.

1988 S2 RST
1991 4x4 SAPPHIRE COSSIE

any help would be great

As long as they are somewhere between et40 and the low 30's they should be fine!
I have no idea what offset an RST runs but i have sold Cossie wheels to people to put on them so there can't be too much difference!!

i think the rst offset is 35 but i have no idea on the cossie.
i was told the calipers would catch the inside of the wheels.
but my rst has hi-spec 330mm brake discs and 4 pot calipers and they are fine

ET 35 is perfect for a cossie so they will be ok!
