Default 997S wheels on 996 C4?

Can someone tell me if these wheels will fit my car? They're the 19" Carrera S wheels from the 997S cars, AKA as the "lobster claws".

19x8 fronts are et57
19x11 rears are et67

Sorry, but I'm absolutely horrible at figuring wheel fitment out. If someone knows, I'd much appreciate it. Thanks!

OK, I used this wheel calculator...

...and it's saying that my wheels will stick out an additional 11mm in the rear, which seems fine. Just want someone to check my math. Thanks!

The java app that I use appears to be down.

I get the same numbers as you do, Jake. 11 mm is not that much of a concern, I wonder about the loss of inner clearance of 15mm. I doubt that it will be an issue, but you might want to check TOS to make sure.
