6 inch wide ones are 36mm offset, and 7 inch ones are the 23mm offset. This is also the same for the early Phone dials (15 inch ones) and 15 inch Fuchs
I believe that later 15 inch dials had the 50 something offset, and so did the 16s. I don't know about the Fuchs.
The slot style had huge offsets as they came off the 928 and similar- 60mm offset on the fronts! I'd recommend avoiding these.
The design 90's had lots of various offsets- all around the 50 something mm. Same with the 16 inch Boxter wheels.
I'd recommend asking for a backspace measure before commiting, or ask for the size as written on the inside of the later wheels (eg 7J16et52, 7 inch wide, 16 diameter and offset 52mm).
What brakes and guards are you planing on? This makes a big difference.
I have seen a couple of other sites with notes on wheel sizes but I'm afraid I can't find them now.
Good luck
