Default Will GS 400 custom wheels fit 95 ls 400?

I know all about the big calipers and these are wheels I am trying buy from a member on the classifieds section and they are on his 99 gs 400.The wheels are Makaveli Delanna wheels.
Check out the thread.

Everything on his car is stock except lowering it.He found a neighbor who has a 95, so they will try to fit it before I purchase them.Very nice wheels in my opinion.I am just concerned about the width of the tires in the front and clearing the calipers.We will see.

Is there anyway I can get a ballpark measure of the offsets by using a ruler? How do I measure to determine the offset.. I think you can do it.. I am just not sure..

Also, when the wheels are on my car, I can fit two fingers between the stock GS calipers and the back of the spoke on my wheel.... That is probably a difference of an inch and a half atleast... That would account for a pretty big difference in caliper size in the event the rotors are the same size..

any help would be appreciated. I am trying to find a car to test fit on, so if anyone around SAVANNAH GA has a ls and some free time, hit me up!

the 2LS Calipers are VERY wide, wider even than the Supra TT calipers.
